What are the stack sizes?

I open 7s6s for 3.50 UTG+1. A player I see frequently at low stakes with 35/17 stats cold calls me OTB. Flop is Qs7d3s. Pot is 8.50. I bet 8.00, he calls. Jd turn, 24.50 pot. I bet 18.00. He calls. River is a 8c. I check...

How\'d I play this?

Maybe I\'ll post a hand with all the relevant info someday.

He has 135.00 effectively. I cover.

He has 131.50 behind when I pot $8 on the flop, and 123.50 when I bet 18.00 on the turn.

Assuming 100bb stacks, I\'m not really sure I like the turn lead - I\'d probably prefer a CRAI - after the second barrell, the pot is now huge, and you missed, he can easily blow you off the best hand with a PSB. If you check the turn and he checks behind then you can evaluate on the river, maybe snap off a bluff. If you do get it all in with a CR your FE, + the chance you are ahead (ie he has bigger FD) + as many as 14 outs if not make this a + ev spot I think.
