if MP1 is aggressive, sure, checkraise the flop. otherwise, i don't know why you would want to potentially give away a free card with only a hunch that MP1 might bet. so if you have no read, bet the flop.i think the river bet is fine.aseem

why did you checkraise the second flop?unless the button is super-LAG or something, i don't think second pair with two backdoor draws in a small three-way pot is strong enough to checkraise.the turn and river are fine.aseem
