you should've raised the flop to find out where you're at

Why not do this with 44 or something? You almost certainly need to fold against a re-raise and you don't figure to get called in this spot. He is drawing to two or less outs if he folds to your raise so you are better off just letting him stab at it with JJ or AQ. Basically your hand doesn't matter when you raise (assuming you don't call a shove) so there is no point doing it with hands that have showdown value.

Hand is well played imo. The Q [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] is the worst card in the deck.
