Hand from Ignition 5NL,
What do you all think is the best action for this flop, I wanted to x/raise but the opponent didn't end up betting?
If I did bet however I would bet close to pot.
Also should I be leading on the river?
The opponent had 5♦:5♠:

Pre-flop seems fine. Especially against 2 fishy players a big raise isn't bad.
Flop I would Cbet as well. I doubt a check/raise will work to often and I expect he will not fold to often if you would do that.

Turn and river seems fine for sure.

Cheers,

I think checkraising the flop is a bad plan. Check/call is fine. Bet/call or bet/fold depending on size is fine as well. If you c/r, then he'll fold only with pure bluffs (which he would fold to a cbet) and call with draws that have pairs in them and may push further for protection with straight up hands that beat you, reducing your considerable equity to zero when you can't call. He may even get overaggressive with draws and you'll have to fold a good hand. I think there is no reason to let him do that.

As played turn is fine. If you bet on the flop you may consider check/call or blockbetting here, because you really don't want to invest much into a hand where you know he either has it or has a draw, which he will likely call again.

River is fine either way. Betting folds all the worse hands, so x/c or x/f depending on size is fine imo.
