Do you bet? If so how much?

i think i check, depending on stats.

If he had top pair nines, the ace will likely kill action since you checked behind on the turn and have now decided to bet, so a small value bet is probably in order.

def vb here, there tons of stuff that pays you off

Anybody bet this turn? Who bets it if we had 100 bb stacks (villain would only have just over a psb behind)?

Well, in order for us to not bet this turn we have to put him on a 7 or a 78, and that seems quite difficult to do.

As he played it, I don't see many people nearly potting the flop into you on a gutshot draw. And there are two possible gutshots, an 8 completing a gutshot for a 7 or a 7 completing a gutshot for an 8. Do we freak out when a 7 or 8 fall here everytime it's bet into us and they call a sizable reraise? I don't think we should. The 7 is probably a bigger concern for us since it completes an OESD that someone might bet out into us and call a reraise with, but only one hand makes that draw.

Short answer: I bet this turn.

I'd also keep in mind that this board is less attractive for a pair to call on with that card and size my bet accordingly. This leaves an easy push on the river.

please bet turn. Doubt he is calling a raise to draw to a gutshot.
As played, for sure vbet river.
