This is like the 2nd or 3rd hand, so no reads. I didn't know what to make of the min bet, and the flat call made me sure I was against some donk with Ahearts, maybe even A hearts/face card for pair. Criticism welcome.

All seems fine.

I just ignore mini bets like that one as if they didn't happen.

The river is interesting, I might be tempted to check/call it and hope he does one of those push-all-in type things that donks sometimes do on the river, but I think the line you took is also fine as 300 chips is well worth having.
