This is a really bad spot for a checkraise,

the worst thing here would be to have this checked through. and there is no way im letting that happen which is why im leading this flop and looking to get it AI.

with no reads im raising more on the flop so its an easy turn shove, however im not sure about shoving that particualr turn because i think your ahead if you get called never.

any other turn though im shoving if just called on the flop.

would anyone not c/r with a big draw here. if you donk you force the PFR to fold really, unless he has a monster.

a set is alot different to a big draw

yes but it is good to play them the same way. if everyone leads with a set here and c/r with a big draw then that becomes expoitable. i don't think that it checking behind is that bad anyway. if a heart or 4 to a straight hit then you don't have to put in any money at all, whilst peoples draws become alot weaker on the turn if they don't hit. obviously our equity against the made straight will decrease as well, but we might be able to see 5 cards w/o stacking off
