Hm..

I'm trying to think of ways the hand could play out. sb checks flop, you bet, he folds, all's good. we won a nice pot. If sb CR's he usually has us beat by a wide margin and we got away from the hand early and did't lose alot of chips.

If some random card comes that he hits, say he has KQ and he doesn't outdraw us but makes some MPGK hand, we win a little more, but probably not much, b/c he will be afraid of the ace.

If he outdraws us we are losing more than by b/f the flop, b/c we won't just fold to one bet on the turn and we will have a decision to make on the river, not really knowing where we are at.

I think there are pro's and con's either way, but it is generally alot better to get an idea of where you stand and to be the aggresor. I still prefer betting the flop to checking.
