Correct Bet Sizing?

edited July 2012 in The Poker Clinic
Hi, another cash game hand.Just wondering if my bet sizing was correct, I feel I played it Ok just only got it into a flip. I dont like flips usually and was wondering if it was avoidable here?
Also I have left the player name in, if you want it removing please say but I left it in because I know he posts a lot on the forum and wanted to get his view on what I had and wether I turned my hand face up.
Thanks

    I think you played it fine... pretty standard line although you can bet flop a little smaller.

    Rancid's play is a little crazy but if he thinks he is ahead on the flop and wants to go with his hand then shoving > calling for me as he is short and needs to protect his hand somewhat. Although its a little spewy and a bit of a tourney play tbh.
