Default Re: check/raise, check/call?

What is the idea behind the flop checkraise? Did you add up all your draws and showdown value and decide you wanted to get paid for your pot equity? Are you hoping to drive some particular set of hands out of the pot? These are real questions, not rhetorical ones as I don't quite know what to do with this awkward hand.

The four on the turn however is much easier. You've leapfrogged a ton of common stealing hands and strengthened your draw. Do not give a free card to all those aces, straight draws, and flush draws that are chasing you.

He may have a king in which case you'll be raised. But is bet-call, check-fold really any more costly than check-call, check-call?
