Basically what cts said.
I like gavz's summary. Unless I know my opponent is capable of a check raise semi-bluff (or bluff), I'm betting about 1/2 to 3/4 pot the majority of the time on the flop. I don't presume anyone is aggro tricky until they prove it to me.
If I bet the flop and get called, I'll check back the turn almost always and proceed with caution.
As played, you're toast to that damn min-raise on the turn.
