I really think the money is getting in either way and would rather get it in as soon as possible

I never said I wouldnt bet here, I said Id want some kind of idea about the kind of players Im playing against before I made that decision. You didnt really give any player specific information here so I have no idea what kind of players are in the pot. Since this board is pretty wet Im going to be
more inclined to bet here but that doesnt change the fact that we are OOP in a multiway pot with a very marginal hand. This simply isnt a hand Im going to be wanting to build a huge pot with unless it is against a very loose passive table. The better the players, the more likely I am to check here, because in this situation the bigger the pot, the more likely Im behind.

Yea, I dont really know how Id play the turn, its a tough spot. On the river Im not necessarily saying always bet less, Im looking at the bigger picture. Either make your other bets bigger so this is your normal bet size for this board, player, etc. or make this one smaller, you dont want big bets to mean big hands.
