100NL: We hit gin, but should we check behind on turn?

[SirFelixCat]

Villain is a pretty weak 25/16. Obv. not a reg, but not a total monkey either. I've yet to see him get out of line at any point and not sure how he plays his draws, but know he's folding a weak K on the turn to heat. So how best to maximize?

And I would have 3bet this pre had we not had a TOTAL monkey right behind me that I wanted to come along for the ride, pre.

Since we raised the flop, we very well could have a FD here or a set or a K or or or...

The question here is what does he put me on and if I check behind (fd), I can probably get a bet, if not more, out of him on the river. Plus, if he has a draw, he is surely going nuts on the river. But, would he call a bet on the turn w/ a draw? I KNOW he's not w/ a hand like KJ etc, so do we bet or check behind having a virtual lock on the hand?

i might even just bet 22 to induce or keep him calling with a draw or K - you want to put some money in there at least to build the pot, especially given 120bb stacks.

Yeah that didn't really occur to me, to bet smaller.

I ended up betting $36 and he mucked, so that's what got me to thinking. Maybe I should start thinking about a smaller bet size not just in these spots, but in general. Hmmmmm...


Thanks fellas.
