does anyone like turning our hand into a bluff on the flop and check-raising, hoping to fold over pairs?

not saying it's good. but it might not be bad.

the good. love to get big pairs to fold. don't really want to give two overcards to streets to draw.

the bad. sucks when the over-pair pushes. over pairs will often check-behind on the turn...maybe?

I doubt many overpairs are laying down here. He could be betting an AQ or something due to your check, so a call or raise could be understandable (a raise being to define you hand; not to bluff). However, on the turn, a fold is standard, it seems. As Unknown Soldier said, he's not firing again without the goods here.
