Re: Waiting till the turn to protect a hand
[ QUOTE ]
Even though you're now giving him the correct odds on the turn too you'll still be favorite there as well? What am I missing?

Aren't you a bigger favorite on the the turn? Add to that that the turn bets are double size. Wouldn't you rather get the most money in when you can put in bigger bets while you're the bigger favorite also?
In your example the flush draw goes from about a 35% chance of hitting to about 20%. That's almost a 50% increase in EV for you just on his odds to hit alone.
