Perhaps this isnt the correct line of thinking but I respect check-raises a lot more than donkbets/stop'n'gos. Only times im willing to call BS on a check-raise is if villain is very laggy or tricky

I'll know to go for the checkraise against you then.

Seriously, though, if you look at this situation, this is a pretty suspicious time for me to go for a checkraise if I have a powerful made hand. Number one, if I have something like trip tens, it's vulnerable to the heart re-draw, so I can't risk getting it checked through. Number two, with the board pairing and the heart flush coming in, the turn is definitely a scare card, so from his perspective, I've got to think there's a decent chance it'll get checked through.
