Check/calling the flop still seems stupid to me.
- You don't know that someone has A2xx, let alone A2xx with a significant freeroll.
- you don't want hands with spade flush draws (but no nut low) to draw for free
- It seems more likely that two people have A2xx than that another person has 67xx.
- 26xx may well pay you off
- If you don't ever bet here without A2xx, it's too easy to put you on a hand.

Anyway - similar hand, different outcome (proves nothing, I know):

Apologies if the hand history is mangled - the converter choked on it for some reason so I did it by hand.
