i think you have to raise the flop to see where you are. You have a decent stack and you can fold or slow down if your raise is called or shoved by villain

edit: maybe raise preflop to get same effect. by calling you have no information on villain.

You got a good hand and the SB with below 10 BB he should be pushing (nearly) any2cards. He completes which is a sign of weakness most of the time and you are happy to take down the t400 which are already in the pot.

Just shove it Preflop.

As played Flop Call is fine, but the t200 bet into a t800 pot by villian on the turn is odd. If you have a read on him that he might hold a Flushdraw or a low pocket pair just shove it here, because a raise commits you anyway.

Fold the river

Edit: I think maybe raising the flop is better, but not a big raise, which would commit you, because I'd fold to a Push by Villian.

I shove preflop for the reasons already given.

As played, I like your line.
