I think a check-raise is good, but not a massive overbet there. I'd pop it to like 450.

you got the best possible flop for your hand besides actually flopping the straight why try and push villain out?

Why has no-one told you to fold this preflop yet?

Ah, I just noticed you are not playing on Party.

Nevermind.

I would definitely call this preflop, and I play on Party. Regardless of any metagame that exists with respect to folding your BB to a minraise, you are getting 3:1 on your call with a decent, speculative hand. I'll take a flop here everytime.

To the OP, I think the CR is an ok line, but no reason to make it so big. Take it to like 450 or so.
