TPGK OOP Standard Line?
What is the standard line for TPGK against an unknown at 50NL? Opponent has been aggressive in his first orbit at the table. I guess I should check the turn here. No real great draws out, but I don't know if opponent plays total crap yet. I want value from 99+ & Ax, but would like to save $ if I'm out-kicked. Is this a clear turn check?

I would bet the flop and check the turn.

check raising the flop is a bad way to get value from those hands but save $ when ur outkicked.
I'd either play like iowaskins, or c/c flop, lead on the turn.

PF: Ok.
Flop: I would lead out for $4 and re-evaluate if re-raised, would typically fold against an unknown.
Turn: Typically check/call depending on card.

check/call or bet the flop, I really dont like the c/r. As played I guess this isnt bad, my typically line would be to check flop, call if bet. If checked through lead for pot on turn and then re-evaluate on river and probably make a value bet.

Check/raising does exactly what you don't want with TPGK: a large pot. Think about pot control when you play hands like these; it's very important in saving you chips when you're beat.
