I usually Cont. Bet this flop but i thought check raise would look stronger

I can see how you got that i guess but by the time he bets 8k, your extra 18k cant ever push him off a hand here IMO so CRAI is no good unless it has some force behind it... which it doesnt.
I dont know if i push pre with our stack sizes but i def either c-bet flop for 1/2to3/4 or check/fold... which way depends on image/reads/etc.
