I had a sinking suspicion I'd get ripped on for not betting this flop...

...right as always FTR.

dozer, what was your reason for checking? if this kind of thing happens with any regularity it is a leak.

I figured I was behind most of his 3-bet calling range & already had given up.

I just thought of the multitude of 2pr/set/straight hands that beat me even if I put him on a fairly wide range (66+,QJo+).

In retrospect, I'm probably not that bad against THAT range, but I had him on a tighter range ... a nitter moment of mine.

These situations are rare for me -- It's far from a typical flop for AK.

I probably gave this shorter stack too much credit for the preflop call.

Then what...push over? Flat & c/c turn?

What range do you give an unknown 3/4 stack flatting a 3-bet on the BU?

Level? No way the average 50nl player bluffs at this flop a lot, too many people slowplay horribly.

I do not recommend checking this flop, just that the only reason to check is to induce bluffs. As played, we should not yet be afraid.
