check behind or value bet?

[Ironside]

ok its a $1r treble turbo and rebuys are still available with a 30k add on
so it doesnt really matter but this is type of hand has been worring me on other tournies
i've got show down value and dont really want to bet fold
but would checking behind be missing value?

ty

made it 3600 he called 88

just checking it was std

I genuinely respect the pha of those that have commented on this so can someone explain value betting this to me??  What are we expecting him to call with here that we are beating???  The only hands I can see calling here are 66,77 and 88.  Do you disagree?  and if you agree do they represent a big enough part of his range to justify a call here?  I can see how they are a big part of his range but surely not enough to justify the call....maybe I am just a bit too notty but I genuinely don't get this.

I'd probs go for flop and river, all 3 is pushing a bit thin

[SuuPRlim]

I think we have the best hand almost always, but agree he's not got many hands that can call, like you say 66/77/88 or a hand that involves the .

Must be fine to bet, as sometimes he calls with these, once in a blue mooon he fnids a King and most of the time he folds. prolly a decent spot to go for some thin value cos the board has mega bricked off...agree bet small though

I dont think in the long run you'll see much difference between the two options, chkig back cant ever be a mistake imo, nor can betting.

If you have a bad image these spots to get thin value are golden
