I never minraise so I don't really have too much of a clue when its a good time to do so but I kinda like your line.

The way I see it his underbet lead on the flop looks most like a diamond draw. I usually raise there because I think theres a good chance you have the best hand at that point, but I see the merit in calling to control the size of the pot.

You minraise on the turn to fold out air, to charge the draws a little more, and to possibly get to a cheaper showdown on the river.

My question is how much if any do you call for if villain bets out on that river? edit- probably not much at all.
