Player is a semi-fish, he'll hold onto draws, no other real notes. All is standard until the turn. His flop play looks like a draw, and on the turn I want to price him out as well as get the max value from something like ak. I think I'm committed to getting stacked by a hand that beats me because villian is pretty loose, so I try to make him pay me off on an installment plan. Thoughts?

<font color="#CC3333">UTG bets $15</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $55</font>, UTG calls $40.

Turn: ($133) 3/images/graemlins/club.gif <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
UTG checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $55</font>, UTG calls $55.

River: ($243) 2/images/graemlins/diamond.gif <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
UTG checks, Hero?

Also, checking behind the river standard? I think he'd push a flush into me especially because of the odds I'm getting.

I would prefer the raise preflop to be a bit larger

Flop looks good

On the turn, if he's got a draw, you only won like 8 Sklansky bucks, that's not enough. Bet more

edit: oh yeah, check river

I would check behind on the river. If I was villian and I hit my draw I'd be very tempted to check the river and hope I get bet at again hard so I can push on a reraise and have hero commited. I wouldn't do it (I'd push river), but some villians do (I just don't have the stones to do that play often.)
