Preflop: I called the minraise because I have position and the pot odds are great, but I'm not sure whether this is correct.
Flop: I think my call here was fine, because I'm ahead of the range with which he cbets this flop (i.e. almost anything), but few worse hands will call if I raise.
Turn: I think my bet here was a mistake. It fails the "what is my bet trying to achieve?" test: I will not make any better hands fold, and I probably will not get any worse hands to call. By betting, I will either fold out hands that I beat anyway, or walk into a slowplayed monster. When he minraises I am almost certainly beaten but given the pot size and his remaining stack size, I think I can't get away.
