1) do you bet the turn or call the river here ?

1. If you check behind you should call the river bet. But bet/fold turn for freeshowdown is much better.
2. Check/fold turn.

Imo easy cf turn; on the flop they dont bet because they dont want to donkbet their ace or queen into the preflopaggressor (button). Wasted money

i guess Hero has the best hand in 1 of 5 cases, but c/folding is okay as well.

I dont think so. We have two players who might have tried to checkraise the flop, and we have the preflop aggressor who might have something like 88-JJ, KK or the Q fearing the ace. Furthermore, if we get called we have a very hard decision on the river. Check/Folding seems better.

after some thinking, this and the possibility to get (semi)bluffraised out of the hand makes me now think you´re right.
