Always bet. If he has you beaten he will bet and your calling anyway given pot odds, so make him pay if your not beaten.

im not putting him on that strong of a hand at all. at least no jack, a jack would bet the flop, so the turn only solidifys the fact that he doesnt have a J (only 2 left)
a low jack isnt calling a pf raise, and even if a low jack check calls the flop im sure they bet hard on the turn

i think im pushing harder on the turn. correct me if im wrong but if he had .70 on the river then he had 1.40 on the turn. the pot is 1.37... shit dood i put him all in on the turn.

I thought 9/10 of clubs or a weak jack. 10s (or maybe 9s) didn't even cross my mind.

Would you have folded if he had bet that .70?

Obviously not. So go ahead and bet. You'll get calls from hands that you have beat, while if you don't bet, you are only paying that .70 to hands that beat you.
