Default 2/4: Two pair with crappy turn, push river anyway?

Villain is a good regular. Not any history I can remember.

BB ($100.40)
UTG ($612.70)
Hero ($640.75)
SB ($515.30)

Preflop: Hero is Button with K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
<font color="#CC3333">UTG raises to $14</font>, Hero calls $14, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>.

Flop: ($34) K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">UTG bets $22</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $86</font>, UTG calls $64.

Turn: ($206) Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>

UTG checks, Hero?

About 390 left.

Doesn't look like he has a set at this point, would've playedb back at some point. That leaves KQ/AK/AA. I doubt a good regular calls with the latter two since there's no missed draw you can rep that would bluff here so I'm fine checking it through.

and QT, if theres any chance he got here w/ AA/AK i think shoving may get looked up often enough by worse.

I'm with JrJordan, I don't think you get value from AK/AA here. You could try betting like 150 but it's a dangerous game, you're going to puke if he moves in.

I'm a moron.

But I still like checking it through. I tend to avoid bluffing the missed draws on broadway boards like these against good players. It just seems too likely that this board hits him in some way and therefore a big river bet like this is asking for a call, hence a value bet instead of a bluff. I may be leveling myself though.

i feel like if he hit 2pair or has a set on turn he'd bet or c/r ai thinking you were on a draw. at that point i'm thinking he has nfd (maybe) or AA or AK so i'm def. betting river, prolly shoving as if i missed the flush.

if he slowplayed a set/bigger 2 pair, break something.

i kind of think shoving and checking are both better than a small bet here. If we're V-betting we're repping a busted draw so id push or check. its really thin and looking again i think he may have c/r turn with a lot of the hands we are looking for value from here so check may be ok.

i'd only go for the small bet if stack sizes were much bigger so that i could induce bluff push if he missed the flush.
