Default Re: NL - unimproved middling overpairs (best line in theory)

Check raise is by far the best option. If you flat call the villain is not gonna put anymore money in the pot unless he improves or a scare card comes that he can use to take you off your hand. He also has the option of firing a second barrel to represent an overpair and can take you off the hand this way too. If you cr and he calls 90% of the time you are beat and you are out cheap.
I mix it up between leading and check raising in these kind of spots. If the villain flat calls a small leading bet on the flop he very likely has overcards and 80% of the time he'll fold to a decent size follow-up bet on the turn.
As jack_plyr says it's all about the villains preflop raising frequency. If he's raising alot remember he has nothing most of the time so don't let yourself be pushed around.
