Villian has been doing a lot of limping including in early position, but we are early in the tournament and don't have much of a read so far. I did see him call a turn raise with 2nd pair and a 1 card gutshot.

His stats are 46/8 but only over 13 hands

Bet less on flop. i fold this pretty comfortably without the Kh. we're either slightly ahead or drawing virtually dead.

How much less would you bet on the flop and what is the reason a smaller bet would be better?

If it was "an easy fold" I doubt you would have posted it

That's what I was thinking. Lots of hands he's playing this way instead of shoving, we beat on the flop. I would likely put villian on some gutshot straight draws with any hearts, and all weaker aces, as well as some PP's with a heart.

Pot sized bet on flop doesn't seem best here.

into 360... I would bet around 280. This way it becomes easier to fold since we have invested less (and accomplished the same).
Ship and fold both seem like they should be in your arsenal.
That being said....SSHHIIPPPP
we smash the equity of his range imo, with so many KJ type hands w/ Jhearts

We're flipping with KhJx and KxJh, I'd hardly call that smashing their range.

+11111, I'm so not stacking off here. In low buyins, people play relatively straightforward on monotone flops (at least in my experience).

Bet 240, and fold to any raise. I imagine the guy either has a set or a flopped flush enough of the time that stacking off is very unprofitable.
