So firstly, do you call pre or 3b?
Secondly, do you even bet the turn, if not why and if so why?
Thirdly, how do you respond to this min checkraise? Do we have to fold? Can we call and if so what is our plan on the river?

calling or raising pre is ok. I call in position.

Flop is ok.

Turn. I call now and reevaluate river.

I am calling preflop. Top pair - decent kicker is very strong bvb so Im usually trying to get 2-3 streets of value. Betting or checking turn is fine. I would call the minraise here with the intention of check/calling river bet. It's a cooler if he has you beat.

Think we have played it great to the turn as a standard line.

Pretty yuck spot as to check min raise is a really strong line to take (reeks of the turn making his hand), but yeah I call and get to showdown as cheap as poss, folding some rivers/bet sizings.
