MHIG but I think I left a lot of money on the table here. What do you think I could have done differently to have gotton the Villians stack?

bet the flop. then everything comes together.

So you would always bet the flop here?

I have no reason to suspect he has a hand as good as the one he holds, and I checked behind to give him a chance to catch up on a minimal draw board. In hindsite it is easy to see a flop bet would likely get c/r and then all the money would likely go in by the turn.

it is too fishy for a preflop raiser to check behind on the flop when in position heads up.

matter of fact, it looks like villian probably picked up on it as well.
