Hero is Button with 55. SB is 50/10 and quite passive postflop. I've seen him get out-of-line trying to steal a pot but he can be *very* timid about value betting/raising.

Hero has been betting HU the whole way and the board is Q64r-8r-6.

5.5 BB in the pot. Bet again or just show it?

Given this read, did you consider to play the turn passively and check behind to protect your showdown/outs and maybe induce a river bluff?

I say check. He could have a Q here or more easily a bigger pocket pair. I think this is just too thin.
