simple flop spot vs. short stack

[bobbyi]

On the flop, he has 75 left and there is 34 in the pot. I don't know the guy. Is the usual plan here to bet-call? Bet-fold? Check and do something?

checking is much better than betting, as it is with Ax as well. betting never gets called by worse. checking induces bets from shortstacks

If hero checks and villan bets $25, then what?

c/f, you're hoping for an undepair, worse Queen or draw. You've only put in $14, putting in $75 more versus his range is pissing chips away.

you're putting him on a very narrow range preflop. when you check, you're basically asking him to bet. i think c/c c/f is viable

I C/F this flop w/o any special reads on the short stack. Besides I might even consider to fold pre if the short stack is playing annoying (i.e. calling much and not giving up on flop frequently in positon).

i normally c/c, c/f
