You have to bet the turn here. It may be a scare card but you have to bet it out for information. The check gives you nothing. If you bet and he raises you could be in trouble, I would then call, and check/call the river. If you bet and he calls or folds, you are in good shape.

If your betting for information, then you have to have a good reason to call if your raised. You got your information, so most of the time fold. I do agree you should bet out the turn here. My reasoning would be there's a flush and straight draw out there he could be chasing.
In my mind, the reason you have to fold to a raised turn if you bet out is because he raised your bet on the flop. Often when someone holds top pair on the flop and you bet into them, they raise you for info. He could also be raising the draw for a free card on a board of Qs 10s 4c, which is why you bet out the turn. If the board was Qc 7d 2s on the flop I would check the turn because the only thing he could be raising is the Q, trips, or two pair on that ugly flop.
Of course the top pair then paired the board on the turn. Even though he didn't have the Q, if you bet and he raised the turn you would have to fold. If he chose to raise a pair of tens against a two queen turn, then hats off. He bluffed you this time. If he consistently does that, then eventually you'll tag him a maniac and begin to catch him. Without player info you have to fold to a turn raise.

It's not what's inside that counts. Have you seen what's inside?
Internal organs. And they're getting uglier by the minute.

I agree very much with your tactics in turn .
Reading the flop , if it is like Qc 7d 2s and he call you in flp, then turn come a Q and he raise you, he is problably has a Q,
may be his hands is q2 , q7, or
If the board is in this case, which is QS,10S,4C , he may really be chasing a flush or a straight, then a raise in turn may only be bluffing.
he may have 9j, ak , or two cards suited.
Anyway, a turn bet is necessary in any case,right?

Simple answer. All things equal I fold both. I'm not afraid to drop KK here if I feel it's beat. I only have two out here. I hate losing money on premium hands that are beat more than I hate losing money on draws. That's because when your drawing with pot odds, at least your not drawing dead.
There are situations I would call it down. Some aggressive players bluff at a paired board to make you fold at 3/6 and some 2/4 tables. If I had seen that tendancy earlier at the table from a player then I will look them up crying and hope to catch them bluffing me.
Bluff sniffing is a tricky thing in limit hold-em. There are very few people good at limit bluffing in mid limits, and even fewer who can profitably stump them. Most of the time when you go bluff hunting your losing money because you try to look people up too often who really had a great hand. The thing to always remember if your going to look someone up is that it should be someone you have good information on.
