Flop folding villain is almost unknown w/ some first reggish stats.
Main villain, who has position on me, is a total unknown. By now, this translates into "not a reg" with a decent likelihood. Also, odd stack.
Question: Value bet the turn with our pocket tens having flopped second pair?
Reasoning: Unknown player will very often call a flop c-bet with any pocket pair that has missed, often with overcards, and there´s a draw possible, plus a second jack makes a top pair hand (now top trips at least) 50% less likely. We are good the majority of the time, might get a call from worse if we are lucky, and protect our hand against draws, including overcard draws. As we´re not yet at the point where we want to give up, bet/fold is also cheaper than check/guess/maybe err.
I have some trouble playing marginal spots.
