C-bet then give up on turn?
Is c-betting flop best line here in 3b pot? Flop is semi-wet but hero's equity when called is solid w/ overcard and backdoor straight and flush draws. Also what do you think of c-bet sizing?
Also is giving up on turn right? 2/3 pot is underbluffed in micros I believe, and especially on a brick turn. Correct me if my analysis is wrong, and I appreciate the feedback!

This seems fine.
This isn't a bluff. Good fold.
I think double is good. Triple probably* when they call turn.
* the A♣ ain't great because we block FDs that C-C-F. We're not blocking any AQs. We ARE blocking AQo, which is fantastic. But we want them to have the jack. So it's a mixed bag.
Usually in 3b pots if we're doubling and get called we're going to jam anything that isn't blocking folds. So I imagine the EV is close either way and very villain dependent with this exact combo.
EDIT: just to add, it being 2nl, a lot of that stuff goes out the window and expect to see ludicrous calldowns. If that will tilt you then certainly no 'need' to be so aggro.
