Hero checks, BB checks
River: (310, 2 players) 2♦
Hero checks, BB checks,
bet flop for valued and protection/denial. As played I would just call flop and if I c/r I bet turn for value
I don't like minraising from SB. Would use limping and 3bb open with these stacks. Flop check is fine but just call. Raising doesn't really achieve much good. It's not value and not bluff either. Alternatively as maniac mentioned we can cbet small.
It's interesting to know your own though process and if you have any info on the villain in this hand. Normal I would raise 3x from the SB with in mind you need to play out of position post-flop.
