You think he calls a smaller bet with less???

No. I (and from reading responses, a lot of others, not that consensus necessarily makes us correct) think that a smaller continuation-bordering-on-probe-bet might induce a bluff (or semi-bluff) check-raise here. I'm not looking to get him to call a bet here, I'm looking to get as much of his money in the middle as possible right now.

However, I will say one line I don't think i've seen mentioned yet would be the "emulate a donk" and dramatically overbet the flop (i.e. push it) aka the Lorinda move as its known in the STT forum. I certainly don't think its the best line here at this level (and especially if people know that I'm gigabet here), but thats becoming a nice piece of my toolchest in STT scenarios just like this (where the push is seen as a donk overbet bluff and gets called by a very wide range of hands).
