Should this have worked?

Criticism welcome on all streets. SB seemed somewhat aggro but also slightly decent. However, this read could be entirely meaningless. Also, i fully expected to go four to the flop if i called, while raising could just mean i go four to the flop for two bets instead of one.

Raise preflop, folded to a poster who checked in the CO. Easy raise IMO.

Given the way you played it I think that is a pretty loose flop call.

raise preflop

I do this play sometimes, its player/situation dependant. It worked, you had outs if he didnt. Raising is clearly better than calling. well played.

did I mention raise this preflop?

raise preflop against 3 random hands and more blind money than normal.

Seems good against the right players.
