What does check-raising all-in on the flop accomplish here? About the only hand hero is behind (and he's behind almost anything villain could have here, I would think) that I can see folding is TT.

In any event, fold pre-flop (and don't limp marginal hands from upfront). If hero must play this hand, he should raise it pre-flop, too.

Gives you some chance of folding a better hand (TT, AJ, AQ) and if you are called it guarantees you (1) see the river, (2) win the most when you hit, and (3) eliminate an opponent when you hit.
