TPGK OOP Standard Line?

    Default TPGK OOP Standard Line?

    What is the standard line for TPGK against an unknown at 50NL? Opponent has been aggressive in his first orbit at the table. I guess I should check the turn here. No real great draws out, but I don't know if opponent plays total crap yet. I want value from 99+ & Ax, but would like to save $ if I'm out-kicked. Is this a clear turn check?

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.50 BB (6 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    Hero ($52.55)
    MP ($66.25)
    CO ($84.05)
    Button ($49.25)
    SB ($44.55)
    BB ($29.75)

    Preflop: Hero is UTG with J, A.
    Hero raises to $2, MP calls $2, 3 folds, BB calls $1.50.

    Flop: ($6.25) A, 8, 6 (3 players)
    BB checks, Hero checks, MP bets $2.5, BB folds, Hero raises to $7, MP calls $4.50.

    Turn: ($20.25) 3 (2 players)
    Hero bets $15, MP calls $15.

    River: ($50.25) 7 (2 players)
    Hero checks, MP checks.

    Final Pot: $50.25

    I would bet the flop and check the turn.

    check raising the flop is a bad way to get value from those hands but save $ when ur outkicked.
    I'd either play like iowaskins, or c/c flop, lead on the turn.

    PF: Ok.
    Flop: I would lead out for $4 and re-evaluate if re-raised, would typically fold against an unknown.
    Turn: Typically check/call depending on card.

    check/call or bet the flop, I really dont like the c/r. As played I guess this isnt bad, my typically line would be to check flop, call if bet. If checked through lead for pot on turn and then re-evaluate on river and probably make a value bet.

    Check/raising does exactly what you don't want with TPGK: a large pot. Think about pot control when you play hands like these; it's very important in saving you chips when you're beat.
    My sig is too much for you to handle.
