50NL TT vs underflop

[.xxxx.]

Villain's been running at 37/17 and hasn't given up much the entire session
I think the lesson from this hand is that you have to cbet flops like this with mid over pairs because any over is a scare card, thoughts?

I see no reason not to bet that flop, no.

Bet the flop. For value. For protection. To win the pot and not have to see a turn.

Generally when you are OOP you want to get hands over with as quickly &amp; simply as possible.
