Slow down with aces on the turn?

0.05/0.10 on ACR, 4 handed

CO (11.93) opens to 0.35
BU and SB fold
Hero pots to 1.10 with AdAs9c2c
CO calls

flop 9d3dJh

Hero bets 1.68 into 2.25
CO calls

turn 7h
hero checks
CO pots, hero folds

I think the flop c bet is pretty standard, but would like thoughts on this too. I should have decent fold equity with a pair blocker and nut flush draw blocker, but can also get called by worse. I plan to continue blasting on diamond turns.

My main questions is should I keep barreling on the turn. I decide to slow down mostly because I don't block the straight and if I bet again the only hands Im ahead of that will call are draws with decent equity. Once I check and CO pots it I think its an easy fold.

I would check range on the flop. It's a better board for him and you are OOP.

Turn is just an obvious check-fold. It's a bad board for your hand and range.


Range check might be appropriate at higher stakes but this isn't a particularly dangerous board that gives them significant range advantage and with pair+op+nfdblocker a bet just to take it down is pretty standard.

Turn is fine, you're drawing dead pretty often and though you can rep the nfd when it comes in that's just not happening enough to justify an oop float
