This would be a very close decsion but I would lean towards checking/calling. You could probaly catch someone betting with a weaker hand like a small Pocket pair or the Preflop raiser might bet with a strong Ace. The reason I dont like betting is because most of the time you will only get called by hands that have you beat. You might get called by a pocket pair but most of the time I think that you would get raised by a better hand and then have to call anyway because of the odds, so you are losing 2 bets when raised and only gaining 1 when called. So by checking it down you would gain the pot when you have the best hand and you only have to win about 1 in 7 times when you call.
