Default Straight Flush Draw: Did I play it weak?

My opponent seems like a decent player. I go for the free card here heads-up: should I have been more aggressive?

Seems fine to me. If your opponent is solid, he knows that you could be raising the flop with any number of draws so he'll probably call you down with any piece of the board so I think this is a good spot to take the free card. Plus the pot is kinda of small so I don't think risking two more BBs and hope SB was on a draw is worth it since you have basically zero showdown value. If you had something like Ax of clubs, I'd probably bet the turn then check through the river.

Not a value bet, not a semi-bluff. Check-through is good.
