Default NLTRN 33 - Should I protect my hand at the turn?

Villain had called my cbets twice. one time he had A2 on an A high flop, and checked both turn and river uninproved, the other time I checked turn, he bet the river and i folded.
I checked turn behind to call most river, but this river just sux. should i call it anyway? or should i bet turn?

I think this line is fine. If river was J of anything but clubs and he potted I think I might call.

Edit: My reasoning is that the river PSB after checking the turn is usually air or something strong. The missed club draw would add an extra hand range that is air rather than an extra range that is strong.

the only reason i MIGHT think about calling this is if i put him on a complete bluff because we dont beat anything but that.. and on a board like that with almost every single draw made by the turn and river its hard to do that.. its an easy fold imo.
