Very shaky turn call - Party 10/20 6-max

[Ulysses]

Calling station MP calls (who makes some strange bluffs here and there). Folded to me in SB w/ AhTc. I raise. BB calls. MP calls.

** Dealing Flop ** : [ 8d, 9s, 3d ]

I check. BB and CO check.

** Dealing Turn ** : [ 3c ]

I bet. BB folds. MP raises. I call.

** Dealing River ** : [ Ts ]

I check. MP bets. I checkraise.

How ugly is that turn call? What about the river checkraise?

it is a non typical way to play the hand - checking the flop kind of induces the turn raise - did you have a plan if the flop went check/bet/fold to you ?

the river check raise doesnt offend me at all - if your going to call the turn you definately want to get the maximum out of the river

Yeah, I tend to do things non-typically a lot. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.

Exactly my thought. I was very confident I had 6 outs and possibly the best hand. I gave serious consideration to 3-betting.

Yes. My plan was to checkraise the flop since I felt I likely had the best hand and the last player was very likely to bet. I figured my likely best hand had a better shot of holding up heads-up. When it got checked through, I really liked my hand.
