I'm also call pf.

But, I would bet flop. The board is not that dry but I think we have very good equity against villain range. But i'm not playing for stack so I fold if he raises and I c/f most turns.

I didn't bet the flop because there were no high cards to represent floped top pair. What I could represent was flush draw or pocket pair and I don't think my oponent would believe that. On turn I could represent trips and the oponent havn't shown any streinght.

So, you don't bet your 'Top pair' in flop? I don't think you represent something at turn, anyway.

I would have iso-shoved pre-flop.

As played the flop check is ok, and I'm looking to check it down from there, maybe calling one small bet from villain.

If you are willing to put half your stack in on the turn, I'd rather see it as a bet/fold on the flop.

Hello all,

This. With one all-in and out of position just check it down.
