I'm in the BB with 8

Effective stacks are around 700, UTG is pretty tight/nitty

UTG makes it 25 to go, folds to SB who calls, I call

Flop $75: 5

Everyone checks

Turn $75 6

SB checks, I checks, UTG bets 55, SB folds,

I think you can either

Bet the turn and river. You're repping an ace and the UTG prolly has big pair lower than A. At the same time you have outs.

If you raise now, your line looks so spewy that UTG will not believe you. You don't have the odds to call and UTG will not pay you off if your straight completes ---> fold.

I would like to know why you chose to check the turn.
