i'd check/fold the turn
take your ego out of the equation and judge the situation dispassionately

 It's hands like this that seem to cost me a lot. I'm getting better at slowing down with unimproved AK-AJ's, but my AQo is still a money loser for me overall
Some days it feels like I've been standing forever, waiting for the bank teller to return so I can cash in all these Sklansky Bucks.

At higher levels, you wouldn't check/fold. At .50/1, you're going to get called with any pair so A high is a fine check/fold.

I check/fold the river. Too much value in betting the turn w/o a read.
