Hey,

More or less bumping this for Jaroz again.

At the most bet pot on the flop. On the turn I don't think betting again is good as it is extremely difficult to get value from worse here. I think checking to start with is the best line. If he's passive I would check/fold, if he's aggressive I would check/call.

Thanks chenny,

I was busy last couple of days and totally forgot about the english DoN hands.

I agree that a bigger than pot bet is not necessary, because we most likely only get called by stronger hands. In the rare case that villian has a draw it would also usually better to just check/call for potcontrol and to collect a cbet.
Now I prefer a line of check/call flop and turn this hand because we give villian the chance to bluff and on this board I don't see any worse hands calling you.

As played the turn push is very marginal for FE against AK,AQ but I still prefer to check/call turn or even check/fold if pushed.
