I'm really struggling here if I should push on that flop or check/call on Turn to keep the pot small in case I don't hit my cards on the river

So he limps Pre so I could be thinking about some sort of a set on flop or even a SD maybe a Two pair like q9 q8

I strongly believe my line is wrong here, I think a raise/shove on flop was the best option

He didn't limp pre, he minraised.

I think you could just check/raise instead of donking out on flop, with the intention of getting it in on flop.

Hes a fish and minraises flop also, so I assume he's just really strong here and won't fold, so we get the best of it by calling his minraise imo; that way we dont lose much when we miss, but he probably will not be able to find a fold if we get there on turn or river.

Metza, with what hands would you squeeze in this spot preflop?

Sorry, you're right

So you mean check / raise shoving as another option?
