    Default Whiffed Check-raise

    Opponent was like 50/6/2. Pretty aggressive. If I whiff on the turn check-raise, how do I maximize value on the river?
    Should I just bet turn and keep the initiative?

    Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ BB (6 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

    Hero ($49.50)
    MP ($19.15)
    CO ($47.70)
    Button ($97.95)
    SB ($25.40)
    BB ($58.30)

    Preflop: Hero is UTG with K, A. SB posts a blind of $0.25.
    Hero raises to $2, 2 folds, Button calls $2, 2 folds.

    Flop: ($4.75) Q, A, A (2 players)
    Hero bets $4, Button calls $4.

    Turn: ($12.75) K (2 players)
    Hero checks, Button checks.

    River: ($12.75) J (2 players)
    Hero bets $12, Button folds.

    Final Pot: $24.75

    You played this fine. I c/r these turns very often against aggro players, so NH.

    Thanks for the responses guys. I just couldn't believe I didn't make more money on this hand. After the flop call, I was sure he had at least a Q.
