What was your intention with the check-raise? To win the hand right there?
I think you are putting MP on a hand you want him to have....as opposed to recognizing how wide his range is. He could have you crushed with a set or simply in bad shape with Q/J+.
To me the check raise just didn't make sense. If you weren't sure J/10 was good, or in other words, if you weren't willing to commit your whole stack to it why raise? Why not hope to cruise cheaply to a showdown or fold?
