Not a glomorus hand but I'm puzzled

What should I have done and why? I wasn't very comfortable with my check-raise on the flop. Check-fold seems weak though...

What's your hand?

Oops, forgot that :-). A9(spades).

If check-folding bottom pair on that board after the preflop action seems weak to you, I think you could use a little toning down on your aggression.

You forgot to disguise the villains names at the showdown.

"You forgot to disguise the villains names at the showdown."

Oops, I still have getting used to posting hands. Will disguise everything next time.

"If check-folding bottom pair on that board after the preflop action seems weak to you, I think you could use a little toning down on your aggression."

You know it's kind of scary that I couldn't grasp folding bottom pair here was a good play even when I thought about the hand and even when I posted it here. You are right about me being over aggressive. I've had problems with that since I started playing. I'll try more.

Thanks
