I check with intent to raise and fold out drawing hands. Unfortunately, nobody bets.

I bet because it seems like I have the best hand right now, and to hopefully fold out drawing hands and get value from Qx

I now beat all board based 2 pair. Should I have taken pot control line instead and bet less?

I was first to act. So you say I shouldn't have tried to checkraise and bet instantly? Because If'd have been re-raised after checkraise, it'd be much easier to find a fold.

And what Ap means?

Just bet, its hard to check raise as the pre flop aggressor because we need someine to bet for us in a multiway pot when they dont have the initiative wich is unlikely. X/raising is also overplaying our one pair hand in a sense.

Yes, check-raising is overreping our hand. We should polarize our check-raising range to very strong hands or semi-bluffs/air that can give up once called. Also trying to "fold out drawing hands" is flawed fundamentals. We bet for value or as a bluff, not for "protection" or to fold out drawing hands. We want drawing hands to call. That's how we make money; we are getting a worse hand to call. We are betting for value. We have greater equity in the hand than they do. Getting sucked out on by draws is poker, but if we have the best hand we never want them to fold. Just don't pay them off once they start going raise happy.

As played, river bet is good. Almost all Qx are calling here.
