Hi there,
I recentyl started playing SnG again. So I raised preflop (blinds were 30/60) 5xBB and got a call from MP1. I did a continuation bet on the flop. On the turn, I got an Ace. Of course this is not really a made hand. But the fact that he just limped in preflop and called my raise + called my continuation bet lead me to believe that he had either a small pocket pair or a weak ace. So I decided to take a shot. Should I check/fold in such a situation?
