Yeah, I check-fold that flop.

And if he's that crazy, don't just mini-raise him on the turn like that, put him in.

not a very tough decision against a short stack, but you could have gotten into a lot of trouble. You could have easily been up against an overpair and lost this pot. This is why I wouldnt suggest calling raises with ATo in bad position. Also, it doesnt look like you have much of anything on the flop and should just get away from the hand. But, wehatever floats your boat.
