On the turn, am I being too aggressive here by semi-bluffing into such a large field? Also, despite the strength of my draw, is the risk of a reraise too high? This sort of situation comes up often for me. Nobody shows much interest on the flop, I pick up a strong draw on the turn, and my natural inclination is to bet, but I'm totally unsure about how profitable of a play this usually is.
