    I would rather min/raise weak turn bet than call off another 28 when you miss on the river.

    A real raise on the turn would be better, but more expensive if he's going to call you with TP anyway.

    I hate that river situation. There is $90 in the pot, bet of $28. He has to have overcards here 1 in 3 for this to be a good call. What else could he have that you beat? A naked Ace? A5/A6?

    This is good too... although you hand is almost strong enough with the draw to wait until the turn if you really think he's betting overcards.

    if you want to keep the pot small for a showdown, this is the best way to do it. i'm inclined to give a raise here either on flop or turn, considering you made a PFR in good position. then again, he does have the blind, so you might be hosed against a 4
    In answer to your question... it depends...
