    Tough spot. I think with the line taken you should probably fold, but I prolly shove in the moment. Check calling these flops has worked for me in the past. You can float flop and re-eval turn and if he goes crazy jus fold.

    I probably fold if I'm playing well. He looks hella-strong here. I don't think he is semi-bluffing very often since you have shown a ton of strength by c-betting that board with a player all-in. And his value range which you beat is only like AJ/KJ/QJ. AJ combos are slim too since you have two aces. And he might just flat any of those 3 hands.

    Rough board for you and hits the villains calling range pretty hard. Unless I have a read that the villains capable of doing this light here I think this is a fairly easy sigh fold.

    What about stack sizes? After flop bet hero is left with ~26 BBs. With that stack size Im happy to get it in here. What are your thoughts?

    OK, that's how I felt. I folded and he showed 78o for a flopped straight. Other than agilles, anyone else think check/call is better? I felt that bet/fold was easiest, since almost any raise (or call) has to be strong given the player all-n.

    I don't mind continuing with only 26 BBs

    I actually think bet folding is the easiest path, the probelm with check/calling is you never know where you stand... You may be able to get off cheaper by check calling, however, bet folding looks optimal taking everything into consideration.
