this is so bad - but i really need some help with playing this hand oop. please try be constructive...

i was going for a check-raise on the flop.

i didnt like the turn card so i didnt want to bet oop.

i was betting the river for value or as a blocking bet and had decided that a shove means he has the king.

sadly - i got taken for an idiot and he was kind enough to show me his hand.

the real problem here is not that you checked the flop, but that you are getting too creative with idiot monkeys that buy in for 65bb. Oop especially I would bet the flop, but its okay to check sometimes. On the turn you have to bet though. As played, river is fine.

cool... i think thats right, check-raising seems to cause more harm than good for me and i probably do it too often anyways. so i should just try and play straight forward for value.

would i be stacking off the turn every time? i was worried that his straight or two pair just got there or he could have a set given his preflop action.
