Check-Raising

I am overusing the check raise play out of position. For example, on the turn I picked up a flush draw to go with my pair. I decided the best play would be to check raise, but of course my opponent checked behind and I missed my flush. I bet out, and he called with a bigger pair and I lost big.

I jumped up to a $330+20 SNG. Had QQ, someone moved all-in on a 200 pot with 1500 with TT and of course outdrew me. What a retard. Now I'm out big yet again. Thanks poker

Played in a $109 SNG, had KK vs. KQs, all-in preflop and LOST YET AGAIN. Thanks poker

Down $500 today again.
