I am jumping on the bandwagon and trying out these games. I'm enjoying the pot-limit betting structure even though I have much to learn.

Villain in this hand is usually fairly tight and decent but I think the big stack has loosened him up as he is calling a lot of raises.

When he called my flop bet I thought KQ or AQ were quite likely, so I decided to c/r the turn. How is the amount of the turn raise? When he reraises I figure I am pot committed and he could easily have AhQh or KhQh so I can't fold.

This looks like you ran into a set. His Turn re-reraise looks dangerous. Do you think he'd do that with AQ or KQ? Especially after you check-raised him? As hard as it seems you probably need to fold this hand. EV- long run.

hero can't possibly fold for 350ish more.

i'm more inclined to check/call this turn than checkraise it. maybe i'm weaktight and dont' get enough value out of my hands, but i don't want to play for stacks if i don't have to.

the problem with checkraising is that you will likely only get called by a hand that beats you, though you cna't fold for just 350 more.
