Live pre-flop and turn decision with 10s

[PieInTheSky]

20-40 live game. The villian in this hand is a somewhat loose (cold-calls pre-flop too much) aggressive player. His three bet range in this situation would be pocket pairs 88-AA, also AK, AQ, and maybe AJ. He is not overly tricky and generally likes to get to showdown cheaply if he is unsure of where he stands but will raise on the big streets if he believes he is ahead.

Folded to hijack who raises, the villian 3 bets from the button, i call in the big blind with black 10s.

Flop is 7 high with two spades, i check-raise and eliminate the original raiser, the button calls. Turn is a brick, i lead out, villian raises and i fold.

Though the possibility of semi-bluff is there with the two spades on board i felt safe folding against this opponent. Two questions: (1)am i fighting an uphill battle trying to squeeze out value from 10s in this situation (i.e., is folding pre-flop the best option) and (2) given the presence of the flush draw on board would i be better off checking and calling the turn and river to avoid getting bluffed against aggressive opponents.

Thanks in advance,
