Some interesting hand from today. Preflop I think is standard. Opponent has no full stack and sometimes raises with weird sizings. On flop I catch top pair and pair of jacks on board. I think here about cbet or check-call. My cbet can call here worse Ax (AQ, low suited aces). When I check maybe he can try bluff but hands like pocket pairs I think check. So I decide continuation bet on this spot because I think more times we get call here with worse hands than this hands bet here. What You think about strategy here in this spot?

Always CBet this.
If you don't, then opponent should (and usually will) lead with any turn, then you don't know where you stand.

I would cbet this all day. Especially against passive villains it will be tough to get bluffs out of them.
I expect you miss value if you check. I expect villain could call some mid pocket pairs as well for 1 street and maybe even some straight draws that has only 4 outs.
