Third hand at the table. No reads. Is this standard or are there alternative lines I could use?

Looks fine.

I'll occasionally just call to try to fade a heart on the turn and then c/r all in.

I admit that this is was a very boring hand with little depth, but since I already created this thread I might post another one:

Villain is 41/10 and fairly passive.

Again, does this look like standard? I sometimes re-raise pre-flop and sometimes I don't.

looks fine
a smaller bet on turn is also acceptable

is this standard? I can't imagine not re-raising in that spot

I usually play limit so I could obviously be way off here.
