bet 1/2 pot, fold to a raise.

I think I'm just pushing PF to isolate. Your M is just under 10 and a standard raise here amounts to a decent chunk of your stack. And you don't really want to get called and have to play TT postflop if you don't have to. And you really don't want either of the blinds coming along for the ride too.As played I agree with cop, but that's precisely the situation you want to avoid. Your down to about 1700 chips and an overcard (the worst one) has fallen on the flop. Now you face the prospect of putting another 1/3 of your stack in on a CB when you might be in deep trouble.When my M drops to about 10 I like to conserve my chips for big moves rather than making standard raises with marginal hands and leaving myself too short. This is a perfect opportunity for a push-steal with a hand that stands up very well to his range if he decides to call.

Bet. Always bet. If you check behind you are giving your hand away, and this way you canrepresent AK and make him fold a smaller ace.

Yeah, I'm not keen on tossing in 40% of our stack and folding to a c/r on the flop if we're not playing this all the way... unless we play a very short stack very well.
