Yeah... flop looks good for a large portion of villains limp/call range... I check the flop and bet the turn if he checks behind...

mh it doesn´t look so clear to me tbh. what hands do you think they limp/call with ? if they really do this with small Ax hands or hands like KJ, KQ etc. you can just check/fold... but imo they often have pockets which they would probably bluff if you check -.-
it would hurt your stack quite s lot though... so i guess it´s ok to give it up

Even up to the $22 games I have seen players limp/call with Axs, suited broadways, pocket pairs, sometimes looser... So if villain is a decent regular I put him on a PP... and then he doesn't have the odds to call preflop so he can't be that decent... That's why I don't find a c-bet favourable here...

This. This board hits our range way harder than theirs, so bet it and expect a ton of FE.
