Rather than go for a scary check/raise or even check/call, I decided to lead (too obv?)to see where I was at.

I think so. His range of hands here is like all 2 pairs, sets, straights, pair + draws (QJ, JT, J9, KQ, JJ, pair + flush draw), KK/AA, AJ, and AQ. Given this range, my equity is only 40%. A lot of these hands have me crushed (sets, straights, 2 pairs); some are equal in equity (pair + draws); some I'm slightly ahead of (KQ, AJ not clubs); and only 1 hand I'm really crushing (AQ). Given the situation, I thought this was a fold. It's not easy to give up aces when you're hand is totally misrepresented, but I think this is a spot to get away cheaply as more often than not, I'm getting stacked if I push here (he'll prob fold the hands I'm a good size favorite against and call w/ equal or better hands only).

I'm curious as to what you guys think are some alternate lines post-flop.

So his range is pretty much any hand he would bet with post flop, minus any bluffs hed make. Lead/fold here seems really bad.

I don't think i have ever raised for information in my life.
