I think as played i got maximum value here, but I wonder if anyone would have played it differently at the time.

Looks like a cautious overpair who didn't fall for the flop trap?

Since i'm feeling confident that he has 2 outs (possibly even 1 out), and since i've got position, i wanted to find a way to keep him in longer. At the time i thought that checking the turn against a solid player was the best way to get him to put in more cash. I'm not worried about protecting my hand given what i think he's holding. At this point i'm just considering the best way to get him to put more money into the pot.

On the turn, I would probably bet because we're mostly ahead and a fourth spade could leave us getting no more action.
But a check is a reasonable line too.

i have $600, UTG covers me. He seems like a good TAG player. I haven't really noticed him getting out of line before. he's 17/6 with a solid win rate over a few hundred hands.
he opens to $18. UTG +1 calls. i reraise to $72 with

. he checks again. I bet $200. Thoughts?
FWIW, i put him on a big pair, with the UTG raise and then calling my reraise OOP. That's the reason for the small flop bet. with the scare card on the turn i was planning to call a bunch of river bets, however since i think he also put me on a big pair, i didn't expect him to bet into me. When i was right I tried to figure out the amount he could call if i bet.
I'm still not sure about the play in the hand, but at the time it all felt right.
