5/10NL Stars 5-Handed. Top pair on turn + FD against big raise.
How is my line here. SB is "akestler". I have played with him a few times only at the shorthanded tables and he seems to be LAG. I probably have a LAG image too.

Why not check behind the turn?
Granted, a turn check-raise from the villain won't make you "throw up", but I don't think you're ever ahead here when he check-raises. Unfortunately, with your 7-14 outer (plus a small chance of being ahead), you're basically forced to push.

Check behind on turn was the play. But given that you bet and he raised, I think fold now, as gross as that seems. D

Re: 5/10NL Stars 5-Handed. Top pair on turn + FD against big raise.
I'm curious to why everyone thinks he's so far behind here. That's such a dangerous flop it's likely that a big hand like a set / 2 pair would raise it then. If the villian is at all LAG I would also just move it in, expecting to be up against a smaller draw.
