I don`t really like your minraise, you`re OOP so I would rather keep the pot small.

You have some showdown value and a good draw, if you bet you won`t get much action from worse hands (chance that he has a J is small since you have 2). I would check/call.

I don't like your preflop 3bet. Either play for stacks and thus 3bet bigger to get it in or just call. As played you have a medium hand on this flop as it kinda hits villains range as well. So I'd try to keep the pot small and check to him on the flop. If he bets, you have to call at least the flop.

I am first to act so if I check and he bets I am then in draw mode by check calling I think. If I do not bet here and villian has a queen or weak king then he may think its good after I show weakness on flop.My plan was to fire at the flop and fold to a substantial reraise. If I only get called on the flop to fire again regarless of turn. Anyway he folded but any feedback on my though process for this hand?

I don't like your reasoning as your basically turning a nice hand into a bluff. There aren't many hands to fold out I think and you loose all value of worse hands than yours.

I think so, you might win the pot uncontested, you could make a straight and maybe you could even get a little value from a worse hand on the river or so.
