Default Re: c\'r turn to save bets here?

Haven't read the replies, so pardon me if i'm being repetitive.

I know what u mean by c'raising to save bets, but I don't think it's applicable here. That's because if this opponent knows anything about you at all, he knows you're unlikely to have 3 bet the pre-flop multi-way w/ a KJ or J9. So if you're beat, you will almost certainly get 3 bet.
Much better to just bet out, this way you may get raised by KK or even AQ or even JJ trying for the free showdown.
You should then check the river and KK and AQ will likely bet it and you make the same three bets as you would've by checkraising the turn, with no risk of getting 3 bet on the turn. And you really can't fold that hand for a three-bet against a loose aggressive. (Even against someone more predictible, I'd hate to be put in a position where I'm tempted to fold)
