Default 20NL: Limp/Caller minraises my overpair on a dry flop. Pop him?

I'm pretty readless about this player. He limped alot but didn't raise yet in about 40 hands. I'm not afraid of a monster here. I'm caring about extraction, so I was wondering if I raise immediately or just flat call. What do you do?

Edit: please tell me your bet and/or raise sizes.

Carlos Poker 0.10/0.20, hand converted by the iPoker Converter at Talking-Poker

saw flop | <font color="#C00000">saw showdown</font>

Button ($36.33)
SB <font color="#C00000">Hero ($21.65)</font>
BB ($10.12)
UTG UTG ($23.22)
UTG+1 ($26.52)
CO ($3.30)

Preflop: Hero is in the SB with K [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] K [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]
UTG calls 0.20, 3 folds, Hero raises to 0.90, 1 fold, UTG calls 0.80.

Flop (2.20) 8 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 9 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 4 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
Hero bets 1.60, UTG raises to 3.20, Hero ???

I would call and look to c/r safe turn cards. Calling and then checking turn looks weak and will got a lot of worse hands to bet.

I reraise flop and lead turn if he calls. If he has a draw he's probably calling you, and if he has a low pair the turn card could slow him down. I don't like to call flop and cr turn cause Villain might be minraising to get a free card.

there is a flushdraw and a straightdraw on the board. I really don't want him to check behind on the turn. Esp. the minraise often means that he has a marginal hand or a draw. so should I hope that he will make a huge mistake with a marginal hand, a draw or an overpair on the flop or try it on the turn by flat calling and leading out? I think it's either raise immediately or stop'n go. If I should decide to raise, how much? minreraise? 8, 12, all-in?

I'd raise to ~11 and push most turns.

Good point about checking turn (that he might check behind). I think still I call flop, but leading a safe turn is probably better than c/r.

What kind of a hand does he play this way? A9/K9/Q9 - I think 3-betting flop folds these hands out. Will he play straight/flush draws this way?

I'm readless, but the general style of play on this limit on this site is that people won't let go of draws and TPs and certainly not overpairs easily. And I figure if he is on pure air, I won't get any more money out of him anyway.

dry flop? this is almost as wet as they come! loads of FD/SDs.. i'd reraise to ~$10-12 and shove any turn. the flops far too drawy to just call, especially oop

3b flop or call and jam a good turn are both good on this board, imo. I would just 3b to like $11 and shove any turn.
