. i bet this turn because my opponents have been sucking out on me constantly lately, but i'm thinking i should have checked to control the pot size. once i got checkraised i basically had to call. any thoughts?

First of all, if he has been sucking out on you that means he is great (bad) and you should run to sit next to him at all times. Don't let it effect your play though.

Yes I raise here. I have a question. Did you think he was just going to call? With 24 dollars left he isn't going to call a raise for 2/3rd his stack. He is going to push or fold. If you made that bet thinking he was just going to call it was a bad play. If you were hoping for a push back at you it was smart. When a guy sucks out a lot that usually means he calls while behind. I would assume he would do so here and make that bet if i know he is going to call/push back.

You aren't behind much and I am happy as heck to get the villain to put all his money in chasing a draw on the turn

thanks for the reply ribsauce. my op was a little confusing; he specifically hadn't been sucking out on me, i've just been on a coldstreak in general recently and am questioning my play. i probably should have just put him all-in on the turn.
