Either c/rai or try to get to showdown cheaply.

I usually c/rai here too but every time i do this i seem to get burchered. imo we always tend to give shorties too little credit. bet/call obv sucks b/c villain folds any worse hands except Adx
imo c/c down seems best.

i bet, and sometimes call sometimes fold, depending on my read and mood to gambool.
