35 hands into the table.

I was at about 20/14/2, attempt to steal blinds at 50% and had picked up a few raised pots with top pair, set, etc. - nothin too special and mostly folded to me after a flop bet or after a flop float by someone and turn bet by me.
Villain had been mostly quiet, and was at like 25/0/??

I'm raising pairs in any position, KQ+ first in, suited aces and kings in LP folded to, etc. - and basically standard stealing hands.

Here it's folded to me so I go for a steal (used standard table raise with no limpers) as I had taken a lot of pots that way preflop, and the players to act behind me are fairly tight save 1 (and not the one that called this time). But I really hadn't bluffed postflop whatsoever - when I was called I happened to hit...anyhow - how's this hand overall? Anything anyone does differently here?
I'm mostly worried about a set here, or top pair + higher flush draw, straight with a higher flush draw, etc.
Problem is that the pot is so big on the turn (if I do anything but call) that it would be difficult to fold any river (other than 4th club).

I usually fold this from two off the button. If CO and Button are tight I might raise though. Check min-raise is weird here, I put him on a set or a higher made flush over a draw. I'm paying off a higher flush... I think you played it fine.

Absolutely no problems at all with this. Weak turn bet doesn't scare me at all, but a check/shove would have.

Ok thanks for the confirmation...just the way Villain played here, I was almost certain that I was up against his set.
So I needed to make sure that I didn't overplay. You know how when you're running pretty well, you tend to get even more aggressive...just wanted to know that wasn't really a factor here - and yes blah blah this is a results post - but seriously I was slightly worried that I overplayed it for one reason...I was so sure I was up against a set, I didn't really factor the other common SB raise-calling hands - not Axs but specifically AKs/AQs. Though, come to think of it, it'd be pretty tough to change my play even if I had factored those in...I'm still pretty much paying them off.
