If you put him on top two pair or a set, then why didn't you re-raise him again before the turn?

Lead the flop unless you're punishing CO for LAGing it up and picking up lots of pots in LP. If you're going to check raise, raise should be more. Check folding the turn is good against most oponents.

I think your checkraise on the flop was incredibly weak. You raised up to $6, making CO pay $4 to win $15, and button pay $4 to win either $15 or $19 depending on CO.

This check-raise effectively did nothing but sweeten the pot in a hand where you are vulnerable with the ignorant end of a floped straight and 2 /images/graemlins/club.gifs on the board.

If you want to check raise in this situation, I suggest you raise at least the ammount in the pot, which at that point would be a $9 raise or up to $11 total.

If both opponents fold, then I think that you are happy to take this pot right now because you are OOP and your hand isn't getting any better. If either or both call, at least you made them make a mistake to draw at you. Thoughts?
