shoving pre would be an option but since hes a new player i think check behind is also good but

i would never just call the flop, either shove or fold, where i would tend to shove on this flop.

i wish i could say i did, i shoved thinking the Qc might get him to fold, he tanked for ages then called with Q7dd. was playing with you tonight martin sorry i didnt say hello ,chat has been revoked for 3 days on stars after a minor altercation. thanks for the input guys.

i agree that this really is on of the worst cards in the deck for you. he's not going to be folding many Ace of clubs hands or for that matter many Jack of clubs hands. most Kx hands hands that he's limping pre are hurting you as i don't think he's limping much less than KT or K9. any Qx hand is really going to have a hard time laying it down as well. the more i think about it the more i think its a fold and onto the next hand.

i really don't mind the check or the shove either pre or on the flop. on the flop the check shove is more than likely going to get the desired effect you're after, but on the turn it really looks like a fold. that said i'm a really nitty type lol

I like a shove pre as well with all the dead money in the pot.  Like hapetimes said if he gets to the table and the very first hand open limps the cutoff to trap more power to him.  As played I'd check/shove the flop as well as we have a decent amount of FE and I can't imagine that flop really hit his open limping range.
