Fiksdal: Read is give in OP originally. You have to read the post again. This was not at "Hula", this was in a private apartment.

Dazza: Why do you hate the turn check? I like to keep the pot at a descent size, so I can call a riverbet.

I think a PP is more likely than a lone nine here, and might also get you a crying call.

I hate the turn check because you're giving him a chance to catch up. A check on the turn after a checkraise on flop usually indicates an attempted checkraise bluff with AK or a small pocket pair.

He also could have AQ here which if is the case you got unlucky but had you bet turn he surely would have folded.

Also if he pushes river you cant call which a lot of good players would do sensing weakness with your check on turn

This deep stacked, pot control is more important than punishing draws, especially when the board isn't too drawy.
