Often even if the turn blanks you can pick up a cheap or free card on the turn. Best of all is when someone is chasing a lower flush.
i feel you get raised more often when you lead out 1/2 pot. if you want to discourage a raise, lead out 3/4 to pot. make it the same as your cbet/value bet. that way they cant put you squarely on the draw.
1/2 pot is fine. no one can tell that your 1/2 pot bets mean you have a draw.
Wikipedia is the best thing ever. Anyone in the world can write anything they want about any subject. So you know you are getting the best possible information.
