push flop. Also after he CRs the flop you can be pretty sure he is going to bet turn regardless of what comes so as played im pushing turn and hoping Im ahead.

i think fold as played, min raise so often jt/qj and pairs that are now sets.

it's not a true 3b pot but this is far from being anything but a hot spot to get it in.

just shove the flop, there's already a 1/2 buyin in there

definitely push the flop. with such a drawy board i personally wouldnt mind taking it down right then and there. there are so many scare cards and cards that kill our action anyways and thats exactly what happened. even if villian checked behind we have no idea if he's getting tricky after catching his straight. if a flush card comes it does the same thing. we're probably slowing way down if any of those scare cards come anyways and that gives villian the opportunity to outplay us, much like what could be happening here. if you shove you're ahead and you're forcing villian to make a mistake in calling with a draw (or at least we hope he has a draw).
