Villain is 21/16 over 90h.
I don't think that many worse hands would call on the turn, hence I check. I assume that he may be betting small pairs against AK, AT, so I think I have to call at least once. River is a blank (except against 88), when he bets again he would need to turn a smaller pocket pair into a bluff against a J or another pocket, which I can't really see on this limit -> Fold?

You'd be surprised how often a disconnected from flop T9 flats. If villains ranges you on unpaired broadways, they don't really mind flat with 2 live cards.

88 shouldn't be in villains range. It makes not to much sense to bet that on the turn. Q is more likely and is tough without good reads to call with only a bluff catcher.

Cheers,
