Just moved to this table a few hands ago, it's a Friday night. I've been playing at this casino a lot the past two months, and only recognize one player to my left.
Villain ($175) is an unknown but MAWG with spiky hair, aggressive tshirt, tattoos and sunglasses.
Hero ($300) is 25 year old who is in business casual clothes from work. Very comfortable at table and knows the dealers/servers.
UTG raises $10, Villain in UTG+1 flats, mp flats, Hero in CO flats with JTss.
Flop: Td 6d 3c (~$40)
UTG checks, Villain bets $10, Hero calls and we are heads up.
Normally I would not go crazy with top pair here, but the bet is small, villain seems aggro, we are heads up and I have position.
Turn: Jd (~$60)
We spike two pair, but the flush gets there. Villain bets $20. Hero?
Obviously not folding, but wonder if we flat or raise. If we raise, then how much?

You can make it 95 here and fold to a shove (or check an odds calculator for out drawing a frush) and check behind on the river

Tough spot. My initial reaction was to throw in a big raise, but I really want to see what others have to say.

I minraised to keep the pot small and he shoved, I folded. He showed 89dd.
Minraise is a mistake because I obviously gave him odds to call if he had T with an Ad/Kd, 89o or something. Been working on pot control and valuebetting lately, and happened to forget the basics there.
I would raise/fold 60-70 if I could do it again.
