dont c/r the flop unless your comfortable getting it in

I'd probably fold now but hate that I put in a third of my stack

You shouldn't raise him on the flop unless you are willing to get it all-in. I would just call his flop bet and fold given the way you played it.

[sh58]

why are you raising the flop. it is crazy.

just call and keep the pot small unless you improve.

he probably has a monster, if not you are better off playing it slow anyway, a raise will just scare him off

[Igloo9]

check call flop? then what on turn? how do I know where I am by just check calling.

if you c/c the flop and turn you put in roughly the same amount that you would if you c/r the flop. but you get the benefit seeing 2 more cards and giving your hand a chance to improve. also if he checks the turn you know you're ahead usually and can value bet the river accordingly. or check/call flop and turn and fold the river if he bets big.
