Default Re: Is this play routine?

I hope you thought that, because your check on the turn really says "ok I am beaten, you can bet with confidence". Perfect situation to induce a bluff, or to escape a good hand that you think is beaten from the start.

Yes, I realized that I could be inducing a bluff, but I decided on the flop that he probably had me beaten. However, I would have called if I made a full house. Don't you think it's at least possible that he has a 7 that has me out kicked but no full house? I thought the chance that he did, plus the chance that my hand was best anyway, would make calling a river bet if I filled up the correct play.
