Looks good to me. The only variant I might try is to raise the turn for a free showdown. Depends on his pot flop aggression. If it's really high, I like your line best. If it's less than 1.5, I might raise the turn for a free showdown and bet the river if I improve.

raising the turn for a free showdown sucks because you ahve a gutshot and thus cant fold to the 3bet.

I thought that was entirely the point of a free showdown, to raise the turn when you have a hand, but also have outs to a better hand.

Other wise what's the point of the free showdown? If you've got zero outs, just call down.

I thought the point of raising for a free showdown was you could do it when occasionally you will get a better hand to fold, but would have called down anyway.
