As a low limit sng-player I'm completely clueless when I have to do anything else than push or fold ;-)
I'm not satisfied with my line here. What would you do?

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t150 (4 handed) converter (http://www.selachian.com/tools/bisonconverter/hhconverter.cgi)

Hero (t1875)
SB (t1590)
BB (t1710)
UTG (t2825)

Preflop: Hero is Button with K/images/graemlins/spade.gif, J/images/graemlins/club.gif.
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t350</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, BB calls t200.

Flop: (t775) 3/images/graemlins/diamond.gif, 7/images/graemlins/club.gif, 5/images/graemlins/heart.gif <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">BB bets t200</font>, Hero folds.

First of all I'd like a slightly bigger pf-raise; 400 or 450. That makes it less appealing for the BB to call with mediocre holdings.

Postflop any reads would be nice. If you know he frequently makes small flop bets like that, put him all-in. I don't think you can raise less than all-in with ~1500 left and 975 in the pot.

However, without specific reads, and because I don't like risking 1500 chips to win 1000 or 2000, I might just call and see if the turn cards is a K or J. If it is, then I'm looking to double up, and if not, I'll make my move for the pot if villain shows weakness, like betting ridiculously small or checking.

I play the 50+5's and the opponents are pretty weak-tight postflop. Against laggier opponents I guess the call for implied odds on the flop could be better.
