I think the whole concept of being 'commited to the pot' only really exists with lower grade players.
Say you have a Kh/Ks in the hole, the flop shows a Kd Xd Xd.
You bet hard and get called, and the river turns over another diamond.
Are you still betting into that pot? If the person with trip Kings is a rookie, he's still betting because he's ' pot commited'....
What distinguishes a great player from any other player isn't knowing when to play- hell, anyone with an IQ over 110 knows when to play... The great player knows when to bail.
hmm..
for all you know your opponent could have KA here and equally scared of the flush. Checking is just inviting a bluff and even if he does have the flush you have outs.
