It's fine, but I'd prefer a CRAI on the flop with those stack sizes.

I don't mind a X/R against aggressive opponents but this guy has a lot of hands he will check back in this spot.

Either way is good though, WP.

The range of hands he'd check back we have crushed any ways, so it doesn't really matter much and we might get TT/JJ to stack off to a CR. If stack sizes weren't like this, I'd just bet/bet/bet.

I'm pretty comfortable with how you played this. 3b then CRAI looks pretty suspicious, and I feel like hands he bet/folds with he will call on the flop...I prefer 1/2 potting it to the river and stacking him.

thanks a lot guys
