Hi,

NL10.

Not many hands played with villain, he seems tight (17/13 on a < 50-hand sample) and did not get out of line so far.

BB: 101.5 BB
BTN: 90.8 BB
Hero (SB): 134.2 BB

Hero posts SB 0.5 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.5 BB) Hero has K 7

fold, Hero raises to 3 BB, BB calls 2 BB

Flop: (6 BB, 2 players) 2 9 7
Hero bets 1.8 BB, BB raises to 7 BB, Hero calls 5.2 BB
I wonder if I should check to start with. I prefer to cbet because I would not mind the hand stopping right there + if I check and he starts betting flop + turn I might fold the best hand.
I think calling the x/r is OK here with 2nd pair + an overcard + backdoor flush draw. The price is fair + their play on such a dry board seems weird

Turn: (20 BB, 2 players) 7
Hero checks, BB bets 15 BB, Hero ?
Obviously not folding now, but should I raise or let him barrel?

Can't make any real conclusions on less than 50 hand sample. All you can know is he isn't a whale.

It's very likely he is bluffing here and if he is then he is drawing dead. Just call OTT and let him continue to do so.

Thanks DDP. My flop play is fine?

Flop doesn't really matter imo as long as you're not ranging 1/3, one pair hands get mixed a lot, but maybe you can bet them less often considering that micro players will overraise 9x otf

So many ways to play flop.

Some guys range here for like 15% pot
Some people 1/3 mix
Some people bet bigger and mix

I think as long as you know your strategy all options are viable.

I would raise small, esp @ 10nlz

We unblock A9, we should be able to squeeze a bit more value out of draws and whatever they think warrants that sizing. and somewhat slow-played OPs will shut down on many rivers.
