While I like that analysis, and that's a line I didn't really consider, I feel that if Villain has 55 for a set, he snaps it off faster than than we can say oops. His tendancies are to get it in. Him and I have history of a hand where I actually cracked his AA with Q10s when I went running TT….

I do like the line though, and i'll consider it for future spots like this.

My biggest issue with this hand is that I really can't hand range him. I'm feeling that in this spot his range is very likely to contain cards that have hit that board. This being said, I did check fold. I felt calling the turn bet was just horrible because he is very likely to bet river again and there is no way I can check call that without improving. I could consider flatting and betting a lot of the river cards, because that looks really strong, but I'm not sure he would believe it. 

Thanks Guys!

Here is what I had wrote down for my review(before I posted this thread)

#675 – I have 54s in the BB, defend is pretty standard here to a min raise from fish. Great flop of 567 with runner flush poss. I check call, which I think is a mistake given previous history(A7ss hand). I think a check raise is a better choice here, as that is a great flop for me. I can fold to his shoves as bottom pair OE is just not good enough to GII here. Flatting is not horrible, but I feel I gave it up too easily on the turn. 4^th pair isn’t good though when I know I’m facing another bet on the river, and most likely another over card. I could peel and evaluate. I think flatting flop is a bigger mistake than folding turn however

I definitely didn't have the checkraise turn line in my arsenal here. It's going to be there from now on. I think check raising flop is a better choice than flatting. The previous hand I'm alluding too I had flat A7ss from BB i think, and check raise a flop of AAx. I was trying to pull the “Who would ever check raise trip aces line” in case he had a pair. He insta mucked. 

@mjcace… thanks for that reply. I think it's the one I was mostly looking for, as I'm aware this is likely to be a huge leak here. Of all the hands I got involved in at the FT, this one nagged at me the most. I'm realizing that I'm only check raising with strong made hands, and that means I'm not stealing in spots I should be. I'm just going to add that I have no doubt the $40,000 pay jump was playing on my mind given that I'm 2nd in chips and we have a semi-short stack. I guess the level there is that that would also have to play on his mind, given that I have villain covered.
