1/2 Pot continuation bet.

Cont-bet, easy, and half-pot sounds right.

bet 250, checkfold any non A/8 turns if called (and of course fold to push on flop)

edit: how often do players here or suspect other players will push the flop or turn with something like KQ (taking that big of a bluff risk)? is just calling flop then pushing turn if checked to common?

i'd generally play this pretty straightforward, call in bb with A8-AT, 22-66, KJ-KQ, QJs, JTs, T9s and fold missed flops, push reasonably hit ones
