Played this like a wimp?
 
Only 16 hands on Villain, but so far he had been playing like a TAG.
I was planning to bet him on the turn if a blank came and I was not bet into.
Would you fold or raise the flop? Call the turn?

This board is so drawy in nature that there's a very good chance this is a flop semibluff by the villain. I would raise the flop, bet the turn, and take a free showdown on the river. 3/6 players like to get tricky with blind defenses and sometimes you have to play back if you don't want to get ran over.

Raise the flop where it's cheaper. You may pick up the pot, or slow him down.
As is, I'd probably fold the turn. Small pot, fairly weak hand.

Nothing really wrong here. Calling the flop with two overcards is just fine.

Some might even advocate raising the flop with overcards in hopes of getting him to check the turn and you then get two chances to hit one of your overcards.
