Re: 10-20 NL hand PP

Check-raising lets you know for sure if you have the best hand or not. If you are called or reraised, you are done with the hand.

it also costs you more money and shuts out virtually all the hands you want to play against that are drawing at very few outs. i think the relevant question to be asking is how likely the opponent is to bet a worse hand on the turn after you call the flop. if he is likely to fire again with a worse hand then there is money to be made calling the turn. if he is not then you can get away from the hand more cheaply by folding to a turn bet. raising is just a way of avoiding a tricky decision.
