You have to realize that in this hand you are either slightly ahead or way behind more times than not. For that reason, I don't think it's a bad idea to just c/f the flop. Even if you're ahead of his A-Q with a club, he's almost 50% to win and he has position on you. This is going to be a very difficult hand to play profitably OOP and so I don't mind just c/f the flop. Really by betting the flop you're just hoping he had JJ or QQ and folds right there. Not a good situation to be in.
