After hitting 2 pair on the Turn, should I have pushed all in or would I have been better calling his raise?

I would rather checkraise turn than bet it as I think he will bet a good amount here since you'll look like you are giving up.

I don't think he will be bluffing often, but if we jam we probably don't get called by many worse hands, I think just min3betting turn is better and jam river.

I would not have played this any differently. 3betting small on the turn is a lot stronger than jamming. I dont like flatting because we are OOP and we dont like a decent number of river cards that could kill action or kill our hand.

Min 3 bet is going leave us with less than a dollar. I like jamming better.
