I've been working on my Check Raise's and i'm wondering if this looks like a good spot to check raise.
I was hoping to extract value from draws and any Q.

Appreciate any feedback.

If you want to get value from weaker Q, I think you can just c-bet.
QJ,QT or even KQ could be folding here as played.

This board hit caller range and villain could be checking decent draws IP.

If villain is a very aggressive player that always attacks your checking range, I do see merit checking raising sets along with some draws like JTs or blocker JJ/TT.

you defend your hand but too big x/reise for 7x 9x also with Q3 it is very hard to call this.
also i will cbet this flop verry often.

It’s a dangerous flop colour and straight draw out there. I’d play it like you
