Could I have done this better? Stars, 30/60
 
Right after this hand was played I got the feeling I didn't squeezed as much money out it as I could have. Would a check on the turn been any better (I mean, giving a freecard wouldn't hurt here)?

theres nothing wrong with how you played this. I will sometimes c/r the flop. either bet/3bet the flop or flop c/r and you are required to bet the turn, so I don't see how you could get more here. checking the turn is a bad bad idea.

Why would it be bad ya think, is it the freecard you're refering to or do I miss to value bet?

you miss a value bet, and you give a free card, both of which suck. sure a free card might not be a bad thing, but I wouldn't ever do it.

Actually looking at your hand it *does* seem to be one of those rare situations where the free card can't possibly hurt. So maybe checking the turn would have been better. But in general the way you get paid (more) for your made hands is by your behavior in hands when you don't have the goods...

thought so to, if my opponent has a wrap hand, it might be the only way for me to get an extra bet, if a 8, J, Q or K hits on the river.
