The big decision is on the turn, and it's a tough one. I hate the minraise by them.

I think I'd fold the turn.

On the river, I love the push. If you check-call, you're usually getting the money in when you are beat, and being checked behind when you have the best hand.

I'm a weakie so...

I check the turn and call a small bet.

If I bet the turn I definately fold to a flat call and a raise.

Maybe I'm a wimp but I check-fold this turn unless the turn bet is very small. Betting the turn IMO is the first mistake, the second is calling the miniraise leaving yourself out of position with a mediocre hand giving free cards to overs and placing yourself in difficult position to say the least. Folding is much better. Read some posts by curtains to convince yourself just how ugly this situation is. Allin on the river I think is OK.

Big blinds can be tough sometimes but this is not a turn situaion that I want to get frisky with in the 100's.
