Check. A bet is likely enough to take it down, but getting check-raised would be bad against the only bigger stack here and the chances of hitting the nuts up against the big stack is inviting. Anyway, free card and you have a draw.

Can someone explain to me why getting check/raised is bad when you have the best hand?

Its part of the fear people have of putting their chips in "on a draw", even if that draw is ahead.

His draw is not ahead unless opponent is on 99 or worse, though.
