Villain here has aggressive pre, but passive post flop stats.  That was my deciding factor to fold which I think is ok.

However, should I have checked behind to control this pot or given that it looks like a c-bet flop go for it?  And given that it looks like a c-bet flop should I be more willing to go with this hand?

Also, please notice his stack size and just how many chips he has…even though he hasn’t done a lot post, he’s been bossing the table around pre.
