50NL: Isolate on button with AJ, flop an ace, get check raised...
Villain was about 18/10. I didn't get to my time bank before I timed out, but I still don't know what to think of the small check raise.

18/10/? I hate these spots, always feels like i´m folding the best hand. If villain is very aggressive, i 3-bet.

He's probably not calling a SC OOP knowing it's going to be a HU pot. His most likely holding is a small pair that he'd normally open raise with but just limps after limpers. Sure he could have a draw but those don't make up enough of his range to continue in the hand. |

Whats the best line to take then. - Re-raise then shutdown? - Let him keep firing and call down? |

Check behind on the flop - seriously.
I dont like to bet in position if I wouldnt know how to handle a CR. If Im betting air then I know I fold If Im betting a hand way ahead of villans range then I call/reraise depending on situation. A diamond draw is possible but the pot is small, your hand is marginal so why bloat it? |

I'm probably as close to an 18/10 as anyone here and if you fold this vs. me then you might as well just transfer me money. I stick it in here. |

Looks like set or 2p to me. Overlimps with SP or A2s, A3s. But if he is very agressive and you think he is capable c/r you with small missed pair (44, 55), I would 3bet him.

How often have you been c-betting and do you think the 18/10 is smart enough to notice?
