out of positiom, you played it right. BUT I wouldn't fold, see the final draw. Pot is too big, and you are drawing clean.

I probably bet the second round about half the time to mix it up, I wouldn't hate a check though. I highly doubt you have any folding equity here and he is most likely drawing as smooth or better than you.

If you check the second round and he bets I still think a call is in order, you have a fair number of outs, but even if you make it, I think you're hands will be close though, unless he's a crazy.
