I think that I should have bet the flop, but check/raising isn't bad by any means. The fact that BB is still in the hand means that I should bet and try to trap him. I just played this one really bad.

This is a trifecta hand if that would have been a heart on the river. Check-raise.

If your thinking of folding the turn to a raise you need to get your head checked.

Not only is this response not helpful, it's implication is just plain wrong.

The villan in this hand was checkraised by our Hero on the flop, and chose to continue with the hand. Not only that, but he is raising the turn, when the bets increase. What hands would make this play? Only a hand that flopped the nuts or close to it. The flopped straight, a flopped set, and maybe KQ, and that's about it. A [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] draw certianly would not TPxK would not. We are a 2:1 dog when the villan makes this play.

Then it's a good thing we're getting 8.5:3 to make the bet/call/call. Ergo, even by your reasoning (which is correct against a TAG), we should at LEAST call down. (Not to mention if we hit an A or K on the river)

Thank you all very much.

I thought I should have check/raised here.

Anyway I bet, he raised and I called.
I check/called the river and got shown KQ.

MHIG and my play is horrible. [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

My first thought (and this thought came from various comments you've made about certain plays you should make more often at higher stakes), since you were debating the turn action, was to check raise

1. Because it's fun.
2. Because if I bet and he raises me, I won't be able to three bet for fear of cappage. But, if I check-raise and he three bets, I'll gladly call down.
3. KQ and AQ are very possible hands for villain.

Well, given your preflop play, I don't think the check-raise is as bad as some people make it out to be.
