Bet/calling is probably best against this opponent although I don`t mind a check.

I also think both options are valid.

I don't think you're getting more than one street of value from hands you beat, which is basically AQ and maybe KQ if he'll cold call your 3bet with it. Take the free card and call a non-absurd river bet, and obviously value betting if checked to.

I like a check. What if you bet and he pushes. Make up your mind before it goes down.

I actually agree more with this and depending on history could fold to a 3/4-full PSB's on the river.

Well, I don`t think we have to be concerned about being beat here a whole lot. I cant imagine villain ever gonna play a set like this and we might get value from hands like AhQ or something.
I do think there is some value in a turn bet and it protects our hand while there are still a couple of rivers we don`t like.
