I sometimes have a problem slowing down after I've made an aggressive play also.
I have had a lot of trouble with this problem too. I know someone is likely to steal with anything if i bet the flop, then check the turn. I always find myself firing a second shell and getting called again.
That being said it's really unlikely villain is making this play with any four due to the pre flop action. His initial flop bet is standard continuation when in position if it's checked to him heads up...I like the flop raise, i would expect most cases that villain would fold here. A lot of times at lower limits where i play 25NL and 50NL, you will see this kind of stubborn play where he calls just because he knows you want him to fold to his c/r whether he has a hand or not.
On the turn only a better hand is calling from a non-fish. But a worse hand will steal a lot of the time if you check. How often are tens ahead here? You say you've seen villain minraise 3 times pre flop in the last 10 hands, has he shown any of them down? It's probably not QQ-AA, but his range probably includes a lot of hands with a Jack. QJ, KJ, AJ, all seem like reasonable posibilities if he's making min raises fairly often.
I probably check/fold or check/call if he bets weak. If he checks behind i lead out on the river if it's any card <10.
