Default TPGK in 3-betted pot SB vs Button

Villain is playing 20/16/3,4 and seems to be a standard TAG. I'm playing standard TAG as well and we haven't tangled. However, what to do w/ our TPGK? I can think of two lines:

[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] : Turn our hand into a semi-bluff, i.e. bet/fold flop and bet some scarecards on turn (Q+) if called. Also bet turn if we pick up a flushdraw (?). If he calls on turn we shout down unless we improve o/c or maybe shoot another barrel if we betted our flushdraw on turn and a Q+ came on river (?).

[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] : Check flop and maybe call one bet on some street, especially if we pick up a flushdraw.

Which one do you like? Our do you have a third line?

Keep the pot small and get to showdown cheap hopefully.

does he only raise with 10 10+? this is an obvious bet on the flop.

No... it isn't. A check isn't a bad play for sure. We gain more information about his hands for free. And it isn't such a big worry to give a free card, due to he just holds 2-6 outs.

Well, if he check behind he's more likely to hold a weaker PP or maybe just overcards. But he could o/c bluff with these hands, but I think he's more inclined to check (afraid of a check/raise perhaps)...
