Stupid time to c-bet?

    Default Stupid time to c-bet?

    I C-bet most 50NL hands when I am the PFR, probably about 80% when checked to with position. Since, my c-bet can't withstand a re-raise here is this a stupid time or just an easy hand to get away from? Secondarily, how often do you C-bet a whiffed flop as a follow up to your PFR when checked to with position?
    Villain sees 40+% of flops, so if he calls c-bet on this flop I shut down anyway.

    Hold'em NL ($0.25/$0.50)
    Seat 2 is the button.
    Seat 1: passdsuga ($47.25 in chips)
    Seat 2: pumbar ($58.80 in chips)
    Seat 3: Treasu001 ($60.40 in chips)
    Seat 4: ETOWNJAY ($45.75 in chips)
    Seat 5: Wildefish ($19.63 in chips)
    Seat 6: HST350 ($52.95 in chips)
    Treasu001: posts small blind $0.25
    ETOWNJAY: posts big blind $0.50
    ----- HOLE CARDS -----

    OK good, I'm not just spewing chips here. Here's the rest of the hand:

    ETOWNJAY: raises to $7
    PassDSuga: folds

    What percentage would you say you are C-betting when checked to after a PFR?

    I almost always c-bet HU, unless I've got showdown value and want to catch some bluffs.

    It's ridiculously exploitable, I know..
