Looks fine. Other option is 3-bet preflop. Obviously with a read there are some opponents you fold the turn to.

grunch, and i don't play 5/10

I don't think you can really fold an overpair against an unknown. I would think at 5/10, you can expect this to be a semi-bluff more than 1:5 times.

Thus, nh.

You could also 3bet preflop. I don't know if this would be better vs. an unknown, compared with your line of c/ring a good flop.

3 bet preflop, and go on from there.

I 3bet that pf all day, other than that I think you played it just fine.

How about calling the flop, check-raising the turn, and fold if 3bet?

It seems all right to me.
