Yeah, it seems standard to me.

Re-raise pre-flop gets a pot size we like and we hit so our stack is going in. I like check-raise on flop and we are rarely getting called by anything we beat by leading out. Turn is not likely to hurt us in case that it gets checked all the way around.

Why not just bet $20-25 on the flop instead of over betting your entire stack? [I am thinking there is $30 in the pot on the flop]
Either way BET the flop dont check. No need to get fancy here. You have it so bet it.

This is terrible advice. Nothing can hurt us? How about a J?! a Q?! both make 1 card straights. Any 9 or 10 could allow villains crappy 2nd or 3rd pair to become best as well. I bet $25 on the flop, call shove, or just shove any turn if called on the flop.

I agree w/ Quad. That's not great advice. fancy play sydrome; bet the flop, don't check that.

No one has Hero covered, so the flop bet is really only about a $35 bet.

Re: 50NL AKs hows my line?
 

I think your line looks fine. You hit your hand and hopefully they didn't. You can't really get away from this one anyway.

agree.. this is very well played. with the pot so large, is this a check with intention of folding if we hit no pair or draw?
