Should I bet/fold turn?
I like a turn check here with the intention of bluff catching on the river (unless the board pairs like it did where it becomes a fold).
The board is quite dry, so your opponent will be calling here with AQKx/KQ9x/JT or J7. Given you raised preflop I would expect him to sometimes get frisky here and go for a check raise with a set, but maybe if he gives you credit (you don't cbet too much multiway) he will just flat call.
So the turn comes and it obviously sucks for you. The one draw has just hit, and now you beat only a set or 2 pair. I don't mind a check behind here, so long as you plan to call and snap off any bluffs on the river from busted 2 pair hands looking to fill up.
But of course on the river the board pairs, so now you beat absolutely nothing at all and it is a simple fold to any aggression.
