Also, just want to add something here. I'm not saying it was played poorly, but I think a better line is to lead out on the flop, even if you are expecting a bet if you check. Push if you get raised behind.
If Villain just calls the check-raise as played, you are in a very tough spot on 4th street if you miss. An A may be good but not the Q. A Q may be good but not the A. Being first to act you won't have a good idea.
If you miss completely, you are out of position on 4th street on a draw with a sizeable portion of your stack in the pot, which is always a bad situation. If all the money is going to end up in the middle, you want it to be on the flop with you pushing or after you hit.
