Should I have checked the turn to induce a stab from the other guys? They both have under 1.0 Aggresion, on turn even under 0.7. Or could I just assume they have nothing?

This is a hand I like to build the pot with a little preflop, even out of position as it's very easy to play double pair hands post flop.

Obviously this is a flop where you can play it very hard, you're favourite over a straight and 60/40 behind against top set. I'm stacking off if anyone plays back at me, but once called in 2 spots this gives us a tougher decision on the turn.

I like a check here. If we are ahead we have the pot locked up pretty much, there are no scary river cards apart from possibly a 7, so we don't care so much if it is checked around.

Also for metagame it's good to check here as this is what we would do with a straight or a set on this turn card. If we are going to bet then we have to bet a little less, maybe 40 cents for the reasons already given (in that when we're ahead we are usually 100% to win so we want a payoff).

On the river, assuming it blanks, again i'm looking to bet around 25% of the pot.
