Simple flop question

[ QUOTE ]
I don't really like checkraising here. You kill your odds and often get headsup with the guy who isn't likely to fold.

I agree with this statement if it is 4 handed or more. In precisely a 3 handed pot, you get more value out of trying to win the pot without making a hand than the odds you give up by checkraising the flop.
By playing this way will you often get heads up with a guy that isnt likely to fold?? Certaintly, but this play doesnt have to work very often to be correct. When it backfires you lose a few extra bets, when it succeeds you win the pot. I believe the reward to risk ratio is high enough to make checkraising the flop +EV relative to betting out the flop. I understand that what I am saying may not be conventional but this is how I approach 3 handed raised pots when I have a flush draw. The idea of checkraising for elimination with a flush draw or OESD just doesnt seem right, but in a 3 handed pot, this is exactly what I will usually do.
