(YAY SNGs where all decisions are made before the turn).

Not sure what we're beating by the river here, but giving up seems too weak. I probably just block for $2.50 or so against a fish. Against a player who's more tight passive postflop, maybe just check and fold to a bet. I think most hands we beat check behind here anyways.

(block) bet, fold to a raise.
check/call reasobaly bet is ok

check and fold to any bet is too weak imo.
This spot is easy for villain to bluff, so it's likely you catch of a bluff.

Maybe bet the flop a bit more. You're charging a flush draw enough that way to call off these reasonably river bets and still be a winner in the long run.

I agree with this but there are alot of hands that beat us now and I'd rather block/fold for $2.50-$3.00 than c/c $5-$6 since it is a very slim call.
