FT 3 handed . Do you ever check raise turn or better to do it on King of club/diamonds (very good equity against straight)

or you always play call call and hero river sometimes

I think you should be betting flop, hand is a bit weak to be check-calling with. Turn I think I'd rather c/f or c/r since there are so few good scenarios on river if you play like this. Any river but K/Q/T just play very poorly for you.

Yesterday I played 13 tables during this final table. Because of this i made a lot of stupid choices. I did not even consider check raise turn during the hand. Only after the hand , but was too late. I need cut my tables to like 8-6 , as long as i not improve my game under preassure. Yesterday session on profit but my game was very poor in some moments.

3 scenarios
1) Bet flop , bet turn, what if river is low card? Bet blockbet /fold? or check fold against big bet.
2) Bet flop , check/raise all in turn if turn is king of diamond/club
3) simililar to second scenario but check call flop.

Check/fold flop, you can find much better spots. Preserve those chips.

Only have second pair and mainly just a gutshot + set draw, 2 low cards on the flop really kills this hand. You'll have to fold too many turns/rivs for this to be worth it.
