Good aggression, or hopeless chip-spew?

Seems very aggressive. You don't have top pair, don't even have top kicker with 2nd pair and you've got a good shot at being outdrawn. No one is going to fold a flush draw with it being 3 bet preflop. Hell, no one will probably fold any pair hoping to spike trips or 2-pair on a pot this big.

Might have been worth a call on the flop and a raise on the turn if a blank fell. You'd be behind to aces, but at least then punish folks hanging out for the flush draw in the event you pulled your two-pair/trips, and perhaps buy a free showdown. You're not really going to buy any outs as anything you make (Q or J) isn't going to make anyone a better hand than yours aside from the flush (which no one is folding anyway).

Still learning though, so I'm interested to read rebuttals [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

check behind on the turn, check-fold or check-call the river unimproved depending on whether there are one or two bets in front of you (I would call one, fold if two).
