Protect or Check?
With a flush draw on board in a 4+ person pot, and I flop a hand like TPTK, is it correct to check? Betting would give people the odds for a flush draw..

[/ QUOTE ] Consider that casinos sustain operability (and then make an enormous profit) by taking action on bets that are 49.5%/50.5% against the player. Here, you get to play the casino -- you're allowing people to place a bet against you that they hit 35% of the time. Why not?
