raise more on the flop

bet the turn

bet the river

you played the hand like you wanted a small pot. in the long run trying to get the biggest possible pot from a strong but 2nd best hand makes you more money than trying to milk average/weak hands for a few $'s. you can just call the flop or raise, but i would lead out on the turn. if he has nothing and folds you wernt winning a big pot anyway, and the idea is to get a big pot by the river so hes committed and you can get all your chips in.

I say call the flop. If you're gonna raise, raise it to at least $1.20

When you flop the nut straight, you can let him catch a pair.

either, check-raise the flop big (like 1.50-2.00 raise)

OR check-call the flop
then check-raise the turn big.

It's all about playing your opponents at this point.

I had a very similar hand just yesterday, I had 78o in the BB and got let in for free, hit 456 rainbow, SB checked, I checked and the large stack made a raise, SB folded and I waited for a while then flat called. turn was a K and this time after my check the large stack made a big raise, I obviously called. I check-raised (all-in) on the river and he called showing KQ.

In this example I was lucky that he hit top pair but I think he probably would have kept betting anyway as he was that sort of player. My point being, I knew he was aggressive, I knew he would try and push me off as he had way more chips than me so I let him try it until he was commited to the hand then bam all-in.

Obviously if he was a calling station it would be bet, bet, bet. You have to play your opponents styles against them so make sure you keep an eye on everyone!
