If all stacks yet to act are about the same as Villain's, then I would raise slightly more preflop (say $25) to setup just that more comfortable a commit spot. Against an aggro straddler, I also wouldn't hate an open limp.
SPR is 5.5 which is a little awkward (thanks to preflop sizing). Board is drawy and we're committed. If we're sure he's going to bet if we check, then I guess I don't hate a check so we can then check/raise to setup a turn shove (I don't like any slowplaying here OOP on a drawy board when committed). Otherwise, I would overbet the flop to like $65 to setup a PSB turn shove.
Got lucky he's bet again on the turn. If we call the pot is going to be $224 with him having just $155 left. There are a crapload of scare cards on the river. Just ship it in now, imo.
Definitely leaning towards call as played since busted flush draws will always attempt to rep the straight.
I'd be more a fan of this tarping line if we were uncommitted on the flop or board was less drawy. Not really a fan of it in this case.
