I hate short stacks as well and would play it similar. I would have bumped the flop to $15 and then pushed the turn.

I'm going to the felt with this hand on this flop vs a stack of this size. I probably don't go about it the same way, though. I'm unconvinced about the size of the check raise on the flop.

I'd put him on almost any pair, as low as 55.

Lead out for $7 expecting to take it down, fold to a raise.
Check turn if called trying to get to showdown.

That's why I don't like KQo in ep, but I don't really get the point of c/r here.

Minraise preflop from a shortstack indicates some donk factor here. So I didn't think calling 1 BB was bad.

I checkraised to let villain take a stab at the flop (possibly holding a smaller pair) that could've missed everyone. My intention was to eventually get him all-in.

Raise more on the flop, and push the turn (as 4_2_it already mentioned).
