Hello, it's been a while since I have posted but here is a hand that involved a polarized bet, something that I had been studying.
Live MTT, 100$ buy-in.
In the end I called with my J♥:J♦: since many draws would have missed, besides the 
which doesn't seem very likely after the turn bet, so only 7♠:8♠: could have gotten there (obviously 
or 
).
I was actually inducing a bluff at the end, that's why I checked.
Also, I thought if I had put a half pot bet and then him jamming on top would have been a disaster for my stack, I would have had to fold, a situation where he is definitely not bluffing.

Should I had just checked the flop and release in the sign of any aggression from the rest of the 4 players?
Thanks a lot, kind of confusing hand for me.
