Sweet, improved my hand, and I'm dead to the 2d - who bets here? Pot's so small, I might actually fold to a bet from him :-/ Is it wrong to think that way?

Final Pot: 4.75 BB

Hey, no reason not to bet the flop.

River check is player dependent on how likely he is to call with worser hands versus how likely he is to checkraise. If you're afraid these combinations aren't in your favor there's no problem with checking behind on the river.

Oh yea, HU I would have to call a river bet from him.

I know its past your bedtime but come on now CDC... worser?
Definately bet the flop, im checking the river here as well, if he did bet I'd be looking for an excuse to fold based on a read, lacking one I call it.
Given the action I think your probably ahead but its easy to expect a check call from a low diamond.
