[4_2_it]

Sometimes I check this flop, since it's drawless, with plans to bet the turn and river.

The way you played it was fine (dare I say standard). I think you only get 2 streets of betting/calling out of villain here most of the time so checking one street to allow a weaker hand the opportunity to bluff or call you down is fine. Villain is drawing to 3 outs here most ofo the time so a free card is not a concern for me.
