Default interested to know what my default line should be

i've faced this situation once or twice and i'm interested in what my default line should be. assume the villain is an unknown.

i'm debating whether in these situations i should raise the turn and check behind on the river. or check the turn (giving him a free card) and call the river raise if the 4 flush doesn't come. i'm leaning towards the second option because it will only cost me one BB. what do you guys think?

<font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, <font color="#666666">2 fold</font>, BB calls.

Flop: (0.55 SB) 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, BB calls.

Turn: (0.40 BB) J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
BB checks, Hero [???]

bet/fold turn check behind river. There are quite a few hands youre ahead of on the turn that youd rather not give a free card too like 5x 89 etc . If he raises you have an easy fold.

You have to put your last bet in on turn.

yeah u cant check, and he doesnt bluff enough (and also with enough equity when bluffing probably) where u cant calldown profitably so bet fold.

You really should read the 2+2 magazine.
