Villain is a very laggy 49/18/2 in 50 hands and floats lightly.

Not the most ideal flop. If I lead this out, this folds out most hands that beat me. And puts me in a very uncomfortable position if villain raises me. I check-call trying to keep the pot small and to re-evaluate the turn.

A blank card. Again if I donk this, this gets potentially raised by draws, sets and bigger overpairs. Another ultra-tough decision. I check-call to keep the pot under control. With a silghtly large 130BB starting stack, I chose to play the flop & turn cautiously.

I'm getting 4 to 1, and felt obliged to call. Comments on this hand?
