Default What he said

Looks like a Stop n Go by the BB.

Getting 2-1 I call here in a heartbeat as I expect an A to c/r all in.

An A *may* push this flop out of the BB as he may be afraid of the two diamonds and doesn't want to tie you to the pot, but more often than not a shortstacked opponent who pairs an A on the flop will check to the PF raiser to let them bet.

I totally agree with this assessment.

The BB short stack needs to double up. so with any ace he's check-raising the flop. I call because he's desperate and might make this play pairing one of the other cards on the board or with any two.
