Villain was 16/0 after 30 hands. I was a little bit scared of the king, but his bets were to small, so I hoped that he just try to bluff me and called him down. Is this a big mistake? Should I raise him on the flop? If yes, I also have to call an allin, because of his small stack. Check/Fold would be to weak on the flop, in my opinion.
What would be your line?

Since hes a shorty IMO i raise the flop snap calling any push, look at how the hand played out. It went all in anyways. Why not add some fold equity as well. Anything less than 10 bucks at this level i usually will put them to the felt barring a very unsafe board

all-in on the flop - he only has $9

I don't see how this pot has anything to do with fold equity. With his stack size there is no way anyone is folding a King in this spot. Stack sizes suggest getting all in with QQ but to be honest I expect to lose.

EDIT: Since we have no fold equity and we probably have to get stacks in, why not choose a line which encourages him to stack off with a worse hand? Raising possibly folds out lower pairs so therefore why not go into passive calling mode. If he is bluffing/betting a worse hand give him the chance to put the rest in on a later street.

If your felting this against a short stack, I like to call the flop and push the turn after he bets a second time since it creates too small stacks on the river where your calling anyways.
