First, I would have lead this flop for about 2/3 the size of the pot. More often than not you will have the best hand here. You are OOP, so find out as soon as possible if your hand is best. If you face a big raise you have to re-evaluate.

By checking this flop around to the button, I think you are all enticing him to at least *try* to pick up the pot with any legitimate unpaired hand. This looks like a standard 1/2 pot continuation bet. Villan has to show a lot more strength than a regular/weakish c-bet for me to fold an overpair.

first this is full ring (theres a full ring forum) , second your shortstacked , if u had 100bb u should probably RR or call for set value

here depends on villains range but a push PF is probably profitable (for a shortstack) , flop i dont see him betting anything but JJ+ or AK so its probably a fold

op should be rr'ing this anyway, unless button is an ubernit that never steals
