Bet the turn, checking gives us no info at all.

jam that turn, this guy is 33/8 he calls that flop with Jx and worse queens, if we're beat we suck it up and onto the next hand.

yeah agreed, but hero can't bet and then fold here he's only got $3 behind and the pots $3.95, he has to jam it.

Sorry, yeah. Jam turn

Jam the turn to get draws to call and worse Qs, if you do run into flush you have plenty of outs.

Shoving the flop would have been excessive and lost us a bunch of value, there's really not much in his range we beat that can call a shove. Plenty that can call a smaller raise though, so just size it to charge draws and get value from worse queens, Jx, etc.
