Re: Was this a bad check-raise?
I don;t really like checkraising with top 2 unless you're sure he had raised preflop with aces (no reason to believe that here) and you've outflopped him. The reason being top 2 is kind of weak and by check-raising you don;t find out where you're at until you;ve stuck a lot of money in and are possibly committed. Worse still here as the BB may also be planning on check-raising - with people to act behind you you could easily be betting into a lurking monster. Heads up it's better.
