Re: called my c/r, now what

Check raising on the flop is good. A check raise here can either win the pot right now or build a nice pot with a strong hand. What do you think donk betting would have accomplished here? Your opponent would have folded a worse hand or played back at you with a better hand. That could only have led to winning a small pot or losing a big one. So I think that your aggression on the flop was solid play.

These arguments all apply whether you donk the flop or check-raise.. ie a donk bet will also either win the pot now or build a pot, and your opponents will fold worse hands and play back with better hands v both a check-raise and a donk. But donking has the advantage of protecting your hand and avoiding risking a free card, also of keeping the pot smaller OOP with a mediocre, vulnerable hand..
