Edit: Also, re: checking behind. When we bet to fold out PPs and tens, we've got the wrong goal. We want to hit our draw and have pockets and tens pay us off. If we miss and they check the turn, we can bet there to fold out weak hands or check and keep chasing.

a lot of these hands will not pay us off anyway (any underpair) and those that are likely to do so (pair and ace if it hits) will pay more if you have bet the flop. against passive players this is a very easy bet as you re almost never worse than 50/50 here and often you are 50/50 and he will lay his hand down.
