his range is mostly AQ right? QQ and lower wouldnt usually play this way and AA, KK are discounted because there's two of each out already. So 6 combos that we dont want to see (ak, aa, kk) and 8 combos of AQ, 8 of AJ (which is sill but probably still there).

If this is his range, hes likely calling or raising any bets we make, so money goes in weather u check or bet, though we lose a little bit of money from his random bluffs we scare off by betting.

i agree with karnouk, by calling you cant exactly continue if you miss. so the only reason i see to do it is if you soul read him for a AQ, AJ type hand...otherwise if you think he has like QQ-TT you should actually reraise or fold so you can get the full value out of racing and get that coin flip as opposed to getting like...half a flip.
