Can I,

thanks for bringing me to that attention-when it was folded to me I quickly glanced at my hand chart cheat sheet making sure nobody else saw at the table and thought it said to raise not fold [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

I will make sure in the future I don't raise this sort of hand in this spot the 10% or so in the future

Listen, all sarcasm aside....you played a marginal hand that other than the occasional c-bet or extended bluff only makes money for you when you extract lots of chips when you hit your miracle flops (trips, house, flush, straight, etc.). To not capitalize on a miracle board for such a marginal hand makes such a hand not worth playing. The fact that you checked just shows further why you shouldn't be playing these hands-the second they're no longer the nuts you freeze up afraid to play with deep stacks. If you're not willing to be aggressive with the nuts and make value bets when the nuts turns to the non-nuts, you shouldn't trust yourself enough to play these hands to make sarcastic comments to people mocking you for not ditching these hands preflop.
