Stars $6.5, BB with T5o, QT flop
 
Villain is a donkey that almost always completes the SB, and has generally shown down very weak hands. I've been pushing over him each time he completes, so by now his calling range is wide enough to make a preflop push -EV here. The guy has minbet-folded on flops before. This is also the first flop I've seen the entire game so I have no image at all for postflop play (not that villain would be likely to be paying attention to that).

So is this push over his minbet on the flop a good idea, or should I fold because of the shortstack and the possibility of better spots later on?

I think this is pretty terrible. What is the point? He can have so many pair+draw combos that will be able to call and totally kill you equity. Plus if you've been pushing on him a lot he's probably more likely to call you.

This looks really bad, especially with the shortstack in. I might call and see a turn, but I'm definitely not raising.
