Default Re: 47s big draw, standard?

If I check/call, I think I'm a genius when I hit my hand on the turn and I check raise all in.

The problem with this is that your all-in is transparent, allowing villain to get off of his hand, or your opponent might check behind since a draw got there.

This move is not to be used with any draw, obviously, but more for really strong ones (OESFD, OESD+FD, FD+2overcards, etc.)

It typically creates a lot of folding equity that can push players off of current better hands, which is also where a lot of the value comes.

I don't feel comfortable with any of the possible lines, which is why I'd have folded preflop.

Once you get more comfortable playing hands like these and cards like these, this stuff will become more routine.
