2 is too much or a 3bet. Make it 1.5.

Board is wet. But his range is wide. Fire away sir.

Lead for 3. I always c-bet into one opponent after 3-betting preflop when an A comes off. You should too.

I ended up check folding when he bet $1.45 into the ~$4 pot. I figured his range could easily include any of the following: AQ - AT, JJ, TT, KJ, QJ and that his smallish bet on the flop seemed odd. I do feel that I basically gave up on the hand too early and should have followed through with my pre-flop aggression, however when I reconsidered his range I felt that flop was bad for me. Maybe this is a bad way of thinking...
