Just sat down at the table, so no reads on villain. When I get min raised I decide to just call and make a blocking bet on the 4c. This card fills the straight, but the min raise on the flop seemed more indicative of a two pair/set or a Tx/77-99. The river is a brick and I decide to make another small blocking bet for value against a hand I beat and to make a laydown easier against a set.

Should I have just checked on the turn or river? Reraised the flop? It seems that there are a lot of possible lines here. Thoughts on all streets appreciated.

Raise more preflop. At least 9-11. I know Full Tilt bet pot button only makes it 7 from the blinds, but its such weak a bet considering he just limped and you're going to be out of position the rest of the hand.

You're line is not bad. Its one of those hands where its just gonna be hard to play out of position no matter what. I try to keep the pot small when ever i can in these situations.
