Read on villain is that he is LAG.

Do you like my check on the flop? Lead out on the flop? I was 95 % sure he would bet it.

Like my mini-raise to induce an all-in bluff from what seems to be a laggy, poor player?

if you know he will bet then it is a good check raise, although i may even raise a little more incase of the flush draw. If i didnt know he would bet I would bet out and hope he calls with overs or chases his flush without odds. I doubt he will go all in as a complete bluff after you check raised him, but it has been done.

fine play. I might even wait till the turn to raise it if I thought he would bet again. Heads up, I wouldn't worry too much about the flush draw. In a showdown, think you win this hand more than 90% of the time. The only problem there is that he might freeze up if he misses the turn or if a scare card comes.

If you were pretty sure he would call your check-raise, then I think it was better to check-raise the flop, but if you thought he might fold, I'd wait for the turn.
