    Betting less than 260 is showing weakness IMHO. I think you have odds to call the turn with those stacks, 4 outs to fill plus the chance he checks or under-bets the river and you check/call behind with the best hand.

    I would check behind - take my free draw and even if I don't hit it, call any reasonable bet to try to pick off a bluff. I don't like betting that turn when the check-raise situation is so blatant. Was he on the flush draw or straight draw? I hate playing that game.
