What You think about this line vs unknown player. After he checks on flop I decide lead he calls. On turn I continue bet to try throw hands like Jx, TT

It's a spot you could think of 3betting pre-flop, but the rest seems alright with the straight draw as back-up to barrel for 2 streets.

3bet or call preflop seems equally fine

As played i dont agree with your postflop line. Since the opponent is unknown check behind will be the more preferable option. You cant properly define what his check means. You choose to turn your hand into a bluff but how does FE looks like?

Eventually you could try a stab if he checks second time OTT. A massive overbet off 200-220% for maximum pressure on TT-Jx hands will be fine.

I told you. You want to keep the variance low against unknown opponents. Yes you can exploit that you are unknown to him from time to time and be more aggressive. But the ratio aggressive to passive play should be lower
