Default Re: Marginal hand + draw = check turn?

This is an automatic bet for value and protection. There are five straight draws using reasonable card combinations on this flop and none of them improved. You are ahead of many pocket pairs and flopped pairs. Someone may well have called this flop with ace high.

The flush draw and pair outs add equity to your bet. They are a very strong reason why you *should* bet.
