at best he has something like.... nothing. people try and pick up cheap pots like these all the time. He could have a 7, a bigger flush draw, 55, a weak 9, KJo, anything. OPs orginal mistake was checking the flop with a great hand, with no indication he has the worst hand.

Donks at the 22's do not respect a bet out of the blinds at all. Also if I bet and get called, which in my experience will happen on a draw heavey board, and the turn is a blank I am in a really bad spot because I have no idea if my hand is the best or if I am drawing to the best hand.

good point. I don't play the 22s. But at the 55s i would always lead. On the turn in this situation i would either check fold to a large bet or make a 'probe size bet/fold to significant raise' to help me draw cheaply. Am i the only one here who auto bets this flop?
