Any AAJx hand it displayed is also a 100% check, as is AAQ (AAQ9 not displayed) and AA9x and AA8x. I don't know if I'm doing something wrong in setting up the solution, so maybe someone more experienced with the program or Monker could run it but seeing as everything else I mentioned is 100% check, yes, OP / Gamble, I believe that 100% check is the desired GTO flop action as well.
Against a tighter opponent BB check, a pot from you might have fold equity but then again, I'd assume a tighter player wouldn't be 3-Betting and calling a 4-bet with J268. Against this particular villain, apparently, there wasn't anything he was folding too. Still, I'm stunned that the villain with go so far pre and I'd be hard pressed to believe that this particular villain is a winning player over a large sample of hands.
As far as checking any hand with under 50% equity in general, I guess you'll have to decide that. Some might consider that action too passive but you can't put too much value into my opinion. My knowledge and experience barely qualifies me to be a player.
Thanks for posting the hand though, because I learned something from it too.
