Default $5+0.50 AQs - Turn check to induce bluff

Does the turn check behind make sense? I was calling any river.

PokerStars Tournament, Big Blind is t50 (9 handed) Converter on pregopoker.com

UTG (t1240)
Hero (t1080)
MP1 (t1185)
MP2 (t1440)
MP3 (t1205)
CO (t365)
Button (t1450)
SB (t2885)
BB (t2650)

Preflop: Hero is in UTG+1 with Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

Flop: (t300) 2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 players)

I would make it a little more on the flop, 250 probably. I like the turn check and river call is close but I think you have to pay it off.

i think that the flop bet is just enough.this way the payoff on an eventual scarecard hitting is smaller- potcontrol. check is ok..

I bet like 200 on the flop, but other than that i play this hand exactly the same. I think we get max value from worse hands this way, and we don't get stacked by a K.

250 looks good to me on the flop, no reason to give 3-1 on that board. Turn/river line looks great
