There are several reasons for this bet then.
1) opponent could fold, and you win the pot

I am semi-bluffing here. Checking behind on the turn is a viable option. UTG is running bad, and the limp up front is ugly.

My draw is strong, discounting the K & Q outs to 1.5 each, I'm drawing to 12 outs with possibly the best hand. When he calls the turn bet, I figure he's got a peice.

Against an opponent who is "stacking off", I'd probably check behind on the river UI, as bluffing at the pot would normally prove fruitless. You have a good feeling he'll call you down if he's got <1 BB left.
