Re: Ok... now I\'m confused. Clarification?

So if you were to raise him, wouldn't you think he would check to you on the turn and hence, you would use the flop to river odds?

Of course it's a possibility, but now you're reducing your odds because you're paying 2 bets to win the pot. The pot was 11 bets, if you raise, you're only getting 6.5:1. Not to mention you risk the chance of being 3-bet, which is terrible with such a poor hand. Plus, your draw is INCREDIBLY weak. 3 (and that was a generous estimate) outs, with .5-.75 of it being a backdoor draw, is not worth attempting a free card play with.
