How much should I bet here? Or should I check?

I'd say this depends on the player, this is a tricky situation, if you think your opponent would call you with a draw or just float you, I think you need to bet again. If he's only likely to call you when you're dominated with a set or two pair you need to check. If you don't know how he plays he's got a good size stack which may indicate that he's a good player so I'd slow down. If he's on a set or two pair, he'll probably try to sell it to you with a smallish bet.

I think you've got to slow down. What kind of hand does he min raise and then call our big reraise with pre flop? I'd think his range is fairly narrow (unless he a total idiot) and with this board I'm not sure we fair very well against it. Do you have any kind of read or feel for our opponent (stats would be great but I know you don't us PT)?

We need stats here to feel comfortable, I mean min raises can mean almost anything at 25nl. There's lots of draws out there now and I hate giving free cards so I'm inclined to bet out here. Now how much? It's gotta be around $7 min, but if we had reads or relevant stats, and taking into account your stack size, I could even see a push here.

Min raiser folded. Different player is making the call.

I shall come back to the thread for real analysis in a half hour.

My bad.... Must admit I don't really like the CC hand converter fwiw.

Still the same decision imo, he's called to this point, so are we getting trapped or is he trying to draw to a hand? If we check, then do we fold to any bet? I still hold on to the opinion of betting out here. If villain has 2pr or set I think he would bet the flop as it very drawy. I'd rather be the aggressor in these situations. I hate it when you chk, go to showdown and they hit there draw.

Yep, I agree with betting here. There are still plenty of hands that we're ahead of, and a lot of them we need to charge to draw out. Stick in ~$7 and fold to a raise.

Depending on what the river is we probably need to exercise some pot control by checking a lot of the time.
