i don't think i see a reason to bet big, or to check behind. in either situation. but i'm tired.

t200 (over half the pot) is a value bet?

I'de bet it strong regardless of buy in, but prob around 250 in a big buyin and around 350 in a smaller one.

I really don't see the point in making those tiny post-oak seeming value bets (like 50-100 in this case). I'd rather my opponent fold more often and I win more when he calls, because if he folds no one sees my cards and usually the call % makes the bigger bet worth it.

Good thinking here, also I would hate to entice SB to an all-in reraise from SB here (not very likely for a bluff, but still possible).
