Want to learn NL, how deep should I start?

I hate people who play like you.

I really hated them in limit too, heh.

The only way to counterbalance this is to start checking more. Vs habitual callers I'll check behind on the flop more often instead of making a continuation bet, or if I'm out of position I'll bet the flop and checkraise the turn. This isn't actually so bad since if I raise preflop I'm going to see 4 cards for my initial raise most of the time if you don't start betting out on the flop. But like you said, you'll check behind sometimes as well when I'm oop and go for a checkraise, with or without a hand. Still, this is the only way I know of to combat this.
