Check and try to hit your 2 outer to a win or 8 outer to a chop.

so, if the river is a 2 and you get bet into, you are folding?

We're comparing whether or not its better to spend 1 bet on the turn vs the river. We can all agree that we're likely behind to sb and that he is never folding a better hand. So why are we betting? We're just asking for trouble. The pot is a pretty significant size and if we discount our outs to chop, we have about 4 or 5 outs or about 12% equity or so. So if the only choice is bet the turn or call a river bet, I vote for the river bet.

Now if we too surfdoc's line and called the flop, a turn bet might be justified as sb's hand could be TT/JJ/or even AK and there might be some value in betting and checking behind the turn.
