I bet here coz I think I have the best hand quite often here.

BB calls $15.80
Now when V calls and not raise my flop bet, I think his range is ver weighted to a FD or even a straight draw. I dun think he just calls with 2p or a set. maybe an overpair with NFD that is so strong.When I bet the turn here, it commits me but my hand is not really strong here if he have a combo draw and the possibility of going up against a bigger over pair.

Im lost in situations like this where the board is very draw heavy and V plays passively indicating that he has draws often. The problem I face is, betting strong and committing bets with weak hands like top pair or overpairs.
Is it better to pot control because we are most likely only slightly ahead?
