In the hand just before this he checkraised the flop with an openended straight draw. I called down with middle pair (flop was like 8102 with two spades).

Other lines that I'm unsure about
1) Check turn/call river (or let check through)
2) Fold to turn checkraise
3) Call turn checkraise/fold river unimproved

I'd probably check behind on the turn and fold UI on the river to a bet.
I'd also fold to his check raise on the turn, unless you're pretty sure he's getting cute with a flush draw.

Ace high has showdown value, sometimes. Most often it doesn't, especially not on a board like that. The flop can hit many of the hands utg has, and you can be pretty sure that he has at least a pair, probably better. I'd probably bet the flop too, but check behind on the turn, and fold UI on the river.
About your 3 possible lines you mention:
1) Check behind, fold UI
2) I'd fold, your likely only drawing to the 4 remaining tens
3) Fold on the turn to a c/r!

I normally follow through with a turn bet if my flop bet gets the pot HU.
I would check here for a few reasons:
1) flop texture is one that is very likely to connect with your opponent
2) you will get c/red a lot due ot 1)
3) you will have to call a c/r because you have just enough outs to do so
Because of these reasons, I think a turn bet becomes very expensive in the long run.
I would have also folded to the river bet, BTW.

You have odds to call raise
But sohuld assume yuo are behind too often to call river
Betting is good on the turn against most opponents
If he turns out to be a bluffer often,
check turn, call river UI, in this situation.

...hmm.
well, I definely don't fold to the c/r
and do fold river UI.
I'm 57/43 to bet the turn... close to me
He folds weak draws sometimes and calls incorrectly too

Vs an aggressive opponent I check behind on the turn and call a river bet UI. You get the most value out of your hand this way and dont have to worry about getting bluffed out of the best hand.

I'm torn on the turn bet.
Easy fold on the river.

bet the turn like you did with him checking in front of you. call the c/r and fold the river. youve got a gutshot and 2 overs that are semi clean.
