i'm pretty sure if i check raised that flop i'm getting no action.
i also let the time bank run down a bit on the river to make it look like i might be making a move at the pot.
lol. This looks pretty bad to me.
I'm not a fan of this either. Your lead on the turn ASKED him to slow down. he raised you on the flop, so check to him and let him hang himself on the turn. Especially now that he's hit.

Any reads on villain? I check to villain unless he's shown the ability to check through streets with strong one pair hands. Check to him, and raise him up hard. He'll likely call the raise AND your strong river bet.
