Default Rare postflop play, level 3

25/50 blinds. No read on main opponent, which means I don't recognize him as a solid player, nor has he done anything too donkish.

Folded to Hero(~950) on the button with 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. I make it 150 because I'm special and clever. SB calls.

Flop: AQJ with 2 clubs.

Check. I bet 250. He calls. Great.

Turn is offsuit K.

Check/check.

River is offsuit K.

I fold to his all-in push.

Looks ok to me, but I would like it better if you had 200 more chips to start the hand with, you need those chips you used for upcoming FE when the blinds raise. Also I think you should be raising to 175, I think that, that can make a difference as to what people will call you with.

Good shutdown on the turn.

Rare meaning I don't play much postflop on level 3. I probably am involved in about 1/10 hands at level 3. This is a flaw I think I need fixed.

I might check behind on the flop, take a free card, and bet out on the turn if i'm checked to again. Would anyone consider this? I would assume that given the range of hands he is calling pf with, he probably hit this flop. If he checks again the turn he has to be weak, and if a turn comes making 4 to the straight he is going to be reluctant to call a strong bet without it.
