Why not bet some on the flop? I'd be afraid this flop would get checked through and AK, AQ will often call some bets.

Turn decision is tough... if you think you he will be stacked if you hit your 10-outer, call. But this seems unlikely since he is probably unlikely to have a six, and he would have to just flat out nbot believe you in order to pay you off with 5 high str8. So I fold with no reads.

Bet-3-bet flop, or check raise at very least. check-clling a set is far from optimal because once your opponets learn that you slowplay sets, it makes it harder to make them fold when you want them to, because they wilkl know you don't have a set.
