Default Re: 5/10, Should I always just fold to these check raises?

This is one of those times when I'm not a big fan of firing again on the flop. It's paired with a diamond draw and there are 3 other players in the pot with op. You are almost certain to get called and are losing money on every bet you put in on the flop. That being said, when you caught a jack on the turn a bet is fine. Calling the check raise is fine. Folding on the river is a HUGE mistake. You have top pair with a good kicker and it's only one more bet to you. You only have to be good 1:12 times for a call to be right. Villain checkraises a worse jack or another hand you beat enough times for a call down to be correct.

Also - after you see the result of the hand, attach notes to the player regarding what he checkraised you with on what board. That way when you see him make a similar play in the future you'll have an easier decision.

See Yoshi's 'checkraising a flush draw-am I on crack?'

If he's going to checkraise the turn there, you can't always fold to a checkraise.
