Default Re: i hate the way I played this AJ hand... any suggestions?

why didn't you raise pre-flop? Here are my changes

1) Raise pre-flop
2) Check raise flop
3) Bet out on turn

If my check raise gets re-raised on flop or if I get raised on turn I need to really think about dropping this hand. I didn't read the results so he is either drawing with an 9 10, really likes his 8 or 4, or has a set. I would think for sure two pair would have raised you on flop. Either way, try to force hands like J8, 910 oughta the hand pre-flop with a raise. My suspicion is you lost the hand given the title. So he must have flopped a set or two pair all of which should have been folded pre-flop with a good raise. IF they didn't fold they are the donks for drawing to a set (1:8) when not getting the odds on those small pocket pairs (guessing he had pocket 4's or 8's).
