Default Re: let draws see turn cheap for better fold equity?

I have done this in multi-way pots(5-6people) at 1-2 live. Basically at 1-2 live people love draws and their there to gamble or go home. I have check-called with two pair with a flush draw on board. If the flush misses on the turn then I will make a large lead out bet, because most people shrivel up with just one card to go. Also, if the flush comes you can reevaluate depending on the player and check call turn. Sometimes this works to your advantage, because a player will try to rep the flush. They will usually check the river with an inferior hand so now you may have made a little more money at their failed bluff attempt. If they fire the turn and someone else calls or the fire turn and river, your most likely beat and may have lost the minimum.

In heads up pots or pots with just 3 people total I think making a large bet or raise on the flop is the best option. Also if you are short stacked get it in and cross your fingers.
