Why did you check the turn?

1) I hate to be check-raised in this spot because I do not want to have top pay 2 bets to hit my draw when I have a chance to hit it for free.

2) I almost positive the tight SB who just cold-called to bets on that very coordinated board is going for the check-raise.

3) I see almost no hands I am up against that are not beating me with that turn card.

4) If, for some strange reason, I am already ahead, there are not many cards that can come on the river to let give my opponents the lead in the hand.

You have 11 outs against most Ks anyway

Actually, I will NEVER have 11 clean outs here, and may in fact be drawing to only 2.

I think the only thing supporting his line was the SB cold calling 2 and every draw hitting on the turn.

Obviously from my reasoning, I agree with this post. I think the decision would be a little more difficult if EP1 didn't call the river bet, but it's a tough spot to overcall here given the action.
