I was considering checking this back with the AA gutter and backdoor nut flush draw but elected to bet small instead thinking I could call a checkraise and play turns with some back for rivers if I decide to continue and that betting small here will show more profit than checking it back or betting bigger on the flop.

No reads.

First of all, I'd like it very much if you could adhere to the thread naming convention described in THIS thread. Thanks in advance!

As for the approach to this kind of spots, I think I like it a lot on this limit. I think that extracting thin value is much more important than protecting your range at micros. Well played.

Fine to bet smallish. I think I would go a bit bigger like 60% of the pot. Its a spot where either he have hit it or wiffed totally so a small bet should get a lot of FE. This allows us to bet thinnish for value looking for folds mainly and ad as many bluffs as possible.
