This.

This I think is a really important point for everyone looking to move up in stakes to remember.

This is one of those hands where it isn't strong enough to go for 3 streets of value especially considering we are basically at the bottom of our range of aces and thus sort of overrepping out hand by 3 streeting. Because of this you need to pick a street to check to avoid value towning yourself into a range that increases in strength every time we bet.

As daven said here I'd check the turn because it doesn't have any effect on either range and bet/bet/check is a garbage line with our hand strength.

ok,

for those of you that want to check turn (which seems like a lot of you), you c/c turn? and then what do you do if he bets turn then bets this river, or bets blank river?

I like a bet/bet/check line because if we check the river and he bets (assuming its not a really weak 1/4 pot bet or something) then we can just comfortably fold. I mean, we bet twice into an A high board so if he has anything with SD value that is worse than our hand he's just going to check behind. That means when he bets he'll either be value betting or bluffing, but why would he bluff when we've shown some strength in the hand? And everything he value bets is better than our hand.

It just seems like if we check the turn we're giving up control of the hand and we're not going to have as good of an idea of what his range is when he decides to start betting (after we check).

I could be wrong here, but I feel like there's still stuff we can get value from on the turn so we should be betting it.
