This is a spot I have noticed I struggle with - I get a hand in the blinds that feels like a mandatory raise over limpers, but then end up unsure playing OOP post. I think I misplayed every street so looking for thoughts on each part
Saturday night, 8-handed
Both H and V in LJ (unknown) have about 200
EP limps, MP limps, LJ limps, SB completes
H raises A
J
to 14 from BB
What size would you use here?
LJ and SB call
Flop: 3 players (~$40) 7

SB x, H bet 12
I cbet thinking two overs and BD spades is enough equity if I don't take it down here - should this be a check?
LJ call, SB fold
Turn: 2 players (~$60) 7

H bet 35
I hit TP and hope to get value from worse pairs or draws, but should this be a check given I don't really have a hand for 3 streets of value?

I assume his medium strength hands would just take a showdown. Does he have enough missed draws that get played this way to make this a call?
