Default Defending Check-Calling

This is one of those irritating situations where you can't get someone to fold even though you started with the best hand...happens to me all the time. I hate this because I don't know if they are drawing and I still have the best hand or if they are just letting me bet their hand for them. Either way, I know that if I check, I'm going to lose the pot because I can't call turn and river bets here without bleeding off money.
