nl50: TPWK, OOP vs a rec player

Blinds: $0.25/$0.50 (8 Players) BB: $52.62 (Hero)
UTG: $52.06
UTG+1: $50.75
MP: $50.09
MP+1: $40.00
CO: $29.83
BN: $50.00
SB: $50.00
50/17, but only 6 hands.
Preflop ($0.75) Hero is BB with A 5
3 folds, MP+1 checks, CO calls $0.50, 2 folds, Hero raises to $3.00, MP+1 folds, CO calls $2.50
Since MP just posted a blind, I am ready to ISO a bit wider even against two players, because of the dead money.
Flop ($6.75) 8 6 A
Hero bets $3.21, CO calls $3.21
Now I decided to go b/x/b since my hand isnt strong enough to get 3 streets of value.
Turn ($13.17) 8 6 A A
Hero
Do we wanna stay with our current plan and just check? He has now less Ax in his range and might be more tempted to call off his 8x.
If he bets like 1/2, are we gonna x/c or x/r?

I like the preflop raise. Solid bluff choice.

What's your idea behind B/X/B?
Just don't have a checking range on the flop?

As played I don't mind betting turn for blockbetsize. Or check call. No clue what the goal is behind checkraise.

Just don't have a checking range on the flop?

Usually on a flops like this after my ISO raise, I expect a ton of fold equity since most rec players are calling too wide preflop and folding too much OTF - so without additional info on Villain, I would cbet close to a range, because in a vacuum, I believe its just an autoprofit without too much complications with splitting ranges. Using different size with my bluffs and value hands vs most recs just, because their calling is most of the time pretty inelastic regardless of the bet size.

In game, I check-called twice (river was some blank), he mucked T9o

Vs a rec player like this who posts blinds I'm going for a x/b/b line. I like your point about your overall strategy having lots of FE on these type of flops vs their wide weak range but we're up against a low level thinker who can't put you on ranges so I think exploiting that by cbetting as a bluff or with stronger kicker/hands makes more sense (polarized cbetting) and pot controlling/letting them "catch up" with weaker hands when you have Ax, and JJ-KK seems best in my mind.
