Did I Pump This Draw Right?

Thought this was a good time for some check riases to pump up the draw. Misplay?

Pre-flop: Honestly, I would have dropped the hand and not called.

Flop: You've got a nice draw, but why the 3bet? You didn't trap anyone. I would have called, and seen the next card. You already know you're going to get action, with 2 raisers.

Turn: I don't mind this raise, with the additional 3 outs... With 2 more callers, you'll break even.

River: Goes without saying. =(

Don't checkraise the turn. You only have 12 outs out of 46 unseen cards. You will only improve 26% of the time and you need 33% to justify a raise.

Learn the odds backward and forward so that you don't repeat this error.

I wouldn't have 3-bet the flop or popped the turn since they both need to be for value and there isn't enough of it in this situation..With the nut flush draw... or KQs then yes on the flop 3 bet.

You have a sucky T high flush draw dont be betting here.

The turn checkraise is very bad. You picked up a 1 card gutshot to go with your FD. Big deal you hand still sucks, just call.

"Turn: I don't mind this raise, with the additional 3 outs... With 2 more callers, you'll break even."

Try doing the math again.
