is cheaper to find out where you are now with a check raise, where as if SB folded you can play this hand anyway you want

Lead the flop. As played I would probably just fold.

"Winners raise(or fold), losers call."

"Small stakes players frequently make the mistake of using pot odds to justify a decision, instead of implied odds."

Just 2 basic components of Sklansky's "No Limit Hold'em: Theory and Practice" published by 2+2 that apply well here ;-)

Cheapest way to see if your ahead is to fold and see at showdown.

Seriously, what is a good turn here? Good river? If either bet at any point what do you need to see in order to call? What good are pot odds if youre drawing close to dead?

That said, i dont think check raising is bad, but calling is 100 million times worse than anything else you can do here.
