I get dealt AA and raise it up, with a re-raise and a cap to follow. This is a very loose table. At the lowest limit at Doyle's Room (.50/1).
Flop comes Q 10 5 rainbow. I bet, gets raised and the third player caps.
2 comes on the turn, I bet, get raised and now the third guy just calls.
I find that I've been just switching to "check/call mode", even when they'll show Q Jor A 10 at the showdown.
In these cases do I keep pushing? Because they're so loose they can easily have Q 10, 10 5s even. Any pair will hang around, and then they can obviously have a draw, set, or even an overpair. I guess the question is when raises can't be used to gain any information, how do I play this? Check call? 3-bet?
On the flip side, I can see the raise as a great tool to freeze the action when I may not have the best hand. Say I'm on the button with Q 10 s and raise a bet with a flop of Ks 10h 3d. I can usually buy a free card if everyone checks to me on the turn. Is there any other way to use this?

Hi. Two very complex questions in on post.
Check and call is fine in the situation described.
Raising for a free card is good but remeber to also raise with your better hands that you will continue to bet.
