What do you think about villain's turn openpush shorthanded?

Um...I hate it? For exactly the reasons I explained in my other post, I think this is a good spot to c/r a-i on the turn if he wants to make a move here. A)It looks very strong and often gets people to fold. B)It often gets checked through, which would be good for him here since he just picked up a pretty good draw.

There's $47 in the pot, he has $63 behind. I don't think a checkraise has any folding equity vs. a legitimate hand. If I bet $25-$30 on the turn and he pushes for $33-$38 more, I'm instantly calling. By pushing first in, I actually am faced with a decision. IMO, checkraise semibluffing with a stack this short is retarded.
