Do you make a continuation bet on this flop? If yes, how much?

Just MHO, but I don't on this flop. Give me a broadway on board - something to represent, then yes. Given your chip position at the table, I see no reason to further risk - what could be, a substantial portion of your stack here on the flop and likely the turn.

Maybe on 4th st. if he checks behind, something like 500-650 at 1200 pot, but most likely check fold is better. Depends if the villian is tight or is he the tight that would raise to put pressure on you.

I have a problem of often c-betting too often. I find myself losing a decent chip position and risking too much on a continuation bet. I don't like this board for it, and I feel situations like this are one of the bigger leaks in my endgame. I think it's best to give this one up.. short of knowing your previous actions.
