$11 turbo 4 man 3 streets of confusion

This is the first hand of the second game of a 4man so no reads No Limit Holdem Tournament • 2 Players$11 + $0.75 Heads Up Shootout Hand converted by the official HUSNG.com hand converter BB56x561500  SBHero1500  Effective Stacks: 50bb Blinds 15/30 Pre-Flop (45, 2 players) Hero is SB Hero raises to 60, 56x56 raises to 90, Hero calls 30 Flop (180, 2 players) 56x56 bets 180, Hero calls 180 Turn (540, 2 players) 56x56 bets 120, Hero.....  I really don't know what I should be trying to do here. I didn't raise on the flop figuring I wasn't folding out any made hands and I have direct odds to draw. I miss on the turn and he bets super small. Obviously I still have odds to draw but not sure if calling is best. If I call and miss on the river do I just fold to a bet? Should I raise here instead since he looks weak and call a jam with my big draw?  Thanks for any input....

My 2 cents: As played it is

My 2 cents:As played it is an easy call on the turn (120 into 540), and regarding the flop: I don't mind raising - and getting it in - against a made hand with this draw. And what makes you think he has a made hand? Could as well be normal c-bet, as long as you don't have any read on his betsizes. Just from my experience the min-3-bet preflop is more often a weak Ax, kx, QJ or small PP then a real Premium hand (but that'  just a general observation).  Only  hand I don't wanna see him turn over is a higher flush draw, and even if that is the case we have live cards and a gutter.

Thanks for the response.

Thanks for the response. Thinking about it some more I think I like your advice to put in a raise on the flop with a chance to take it down there and a lot of equity if I get it in VS calling 2 streets and possibly not hitting any of my draws and having to give up on the river.

I also think raising the flop

I also think raising the flop is best given how much equity and fold equity you'll have.
