Default Re: 3 betting turn out of position without a river plan

That's a very enlightening perspective, Stox. Lmn, is, of course, correct in that the EV of the proposition bet is positive. It is the old flush draw question: the player on the flush draw is getting wonderful odds (++EV)to call, but the player with best equity is always correct to bet. However, in this situation, Stox's further evaluation is (IMO) correct. You're either costing yourself quite a bit or getting the same bet you'd get on his river bluff.
