big RR i know, but i wanted to isolate shorty, and it kind of backfired.

Flop: ($11.75) , , (2 players)
Hero bets 21.95 , MP bets $13.75 (All-In).
the reason for the push over was that if i bet the usual $7.50-$9, he is committed. so, i just wanted as much FE as i could get here agaisnt the unpaired broadways in his range. i figured if he hit his set, good for him. but, i also thought that QQ+ 4bets me pf. is that a reason i should only c/c this flop? i may have been a bit tilty, but i dont think this was a complete donkey move. just a bit aggro?
I didn't really read the other hands but this one jumped out as bad. Not because of the big 3-bet, that's fine at 25NL because they'll still call it with anything.

What's awful is your though process on the flop. You do not want FE against unpaired overs. You want them to call, you're beating them after all. If they want to pay $7.50 to hit their card that's awesome. All you're doing by betting this large making sure you're only getting called by good hands instead of the crap people will normally want to call with.
