Why did you check the turn? If he had a naked 6 or a decent overpair (such as JJ), wouldn't he be reraising the flop to protect his hand and win a nice pot right there? My guess is that unless he flopped a full house or quads, he has overcards (such as AK or AQ), and is waiting to see if he can take the pot with a check-raise on the turn. Once you pair the king on the turn, you are in a good position to reraise all-in if necessary (assuming you are willing to play with your whole stack for a TPTK hand against this particular opponent).

So, against this villain, I guess I would have bet hard on the turn.
