If he raises your checkraise, you can fold.

By the time he reraises the check-raise, you're just about given odds to call if you at worst believe he has AA. It's even better if you're drawing to a live A.

Suppose the line on the flop went something like: check, bet $70, check-raise to $210, re-raise to $939 and all-in. You are getting 1258:729 to call or exactly 1.73:1 odds to call.

Kd Kh 534 53.94 456 46.06 0 0.00 0.539

This says you are a slight dog at 1.16:1 against. You have to call.

Even against AA, you have to call the re-raise all-in:

As Ks 360 36.36 630 63.64 0 0.00 0.364
Ad Ah 630 63.64 360 36.36 0 0.00 0.636

This says you need 1.74:1 to call. You just about have odds to call here too.

In my opinion, your line is weak. Chip-spewing and then folding when you have odds to call. You might as well check-raise all-in if you feel there's an inkling of a chance that he might fold.
