If your read is that he peels flops light, why not bet the turn? Does he go to showdown light?

Hm not sure what I think about this. Even if villain peels flop light there are A LOT of hands that beat you, any K, 2, 4, 7, and QJ. Do you really think you're good 1 in 4 times? If the answer is yes then the call is ok. I'd like it a lot better if the river was a seven.

What does he do when the turn bricks or makes his underpair draws seemingly worthless?

if he feels flop light, then shouldn't you check flop?

There are times where getting bluff raised on the turn will happen at a high enough frequency that checking behind to combat this AND possibly induce bluffs is the more profitable play (note: betting the turn is obviously superior with a stronger hand).

If you're checking the turn to induce bluffs then why are you betting the turn with a stronger hand?
