V1: (200) UTG+1 splashy player, overvalues his holdings, I had previously seen him bet second pair first to act in a multiway pot.
V2: (150) HJ also splashy, very loose and bad aggressive player, limps in way too often, calls down extremely light.
HERO: (400) direct left of V1, young TAG, people may percive me as a lag who is card dead since when I first sat down an hour ago i 3bet my first two hands and open raised the third
OTTH
V1 limps in, I limp behind with [6

], V2 raises to 12, Button, bb, V1 and I call. Pot: 60
FLOP: [6

] V1 Checks, I consider betting and as I cut out $50 of my stack, I change my mind and decide to check. V2 bets 50, folds to V1 who jams, I jam next to act and V2 calls.
I considered betting OTF but i decided to check. Should I be leading into this pot to avoid it checking around and seeing a bad turn?
