Default Re: Ditch this draw or play?

You're right, you would be pretty much pot committed. I assumed you have about t1500, like on Pstars. In that case, push the river if he checks and all looks safe.

As far as checking the turn and betting the river, all I can say is that it works against 90% of average opponents. Usually, they are drawing too or have very marginal hands, otherwise they would re-raise the flop and bet the turn/river. So when you bet the river, they just let it go thinking you might be bluffing but not willing to risk their whole stack to find out for sure.
