Default I just need a standard line

Sorry no converter on this one. I am learning NL from a limit background. I get confused in these spots becuase I don't like any of my options.
This is Party NL200 6 max.
eff stacks are about 300.
I get j10s and raise to $7, button repops to $20. Only I call.
Flop: 10 7 2 rainbow.
What's the standard plan for flopping a meduim top pair after calling a raise? Any general discussion about how stacks, opponent's play, etc. come into your thought process on these hands would be great too.

Fold preflop and feel good - JTs oop does not like a 3x raise.

I'll play JTs here. I'll check call flop and reevaluate on the turn.

I fold this preflop as well.

You should probably get your feet wet at NL50/100 before you jump into 200. Even for good limit players, there's still a substantial adjustment period.

Yeah, I usually find myself check calling as I really dislike checkraising. I feel like this just opens us up to get outplayed on the turn though.
So... what now...
Flop 10 7 2. I check and call a $32 bet. Pot is about $100 now.
Turn: 5 (bringing a flush draw but not mine). I check, villian bets $75.
My play?

fold pf, c/f flop usually, sometimes calling if villan is really really bad.

turn i just open push. although maybe a bit slim, here is the range i give villan :

Board: Td 7c 2s 5s
Dead:

equity (%) win (%) tie (%)
Hand 1: 60.8696 % 60.87% 00.00% { JsTs }
Hand 2: 39.1304 % 39.13% 00.00% { TT+, AQo+ }

Sorry for the confusion orange and others, but the turn does NOT bring a flush draw for me, just a flush draw. Also, I am assuming that when you say fold preflop that this is to the 3bet and not open folding?

Concerning preflop...eff stacks are $300 so I figured I have some nice implied odds when i hit a hand. How big do the stacks need to be before the folders say call? Are you always folding becuase we are out of position? It's only $14 more for me to call, I would have thought that this would have been a pretty standard call.
