Dean's comment in the video is that since the guy is reasonable he will have to put us on *something* decent when we just peel the flop

Yes, this is normally true against someone that got stats on us and play 30/20. Maybe he will bet again if we got a very low WTSD%.

I think a checkcall and a checkraise on flop sends about the same message and since I think we are ahead often enough we should checkraise flop. But since I think we will get a fold from some of his hopeless hands we are now coming in on turn having narrowed down his range a bit, which really isnt that nice if we are thinking about betting again.

So turn is tricky to play. I dont like betfold since a turnraise will not be aces that often. But I dont like checkcall either since we will not call with a better hand often enough, instead giving him a freecard when we are ahead.

This is so tricky to play since he got position and we have to give our hand away on flop.
