Bluff Called By Limper, What Next?

[Jaded]

Nothing much in the way of a read on Christoz here. 75 mins or so into the tourney, am 12th of 36 at the moment - 18 places paid. Decided to go for a bluff with A5s, then made a continuation bet on the flop to see what he did. What should I go for now?

Re: Bluff Called By Limper, What Next? Looks like he has a big-ish hand, limped in early position and if he knows there 's usually a raise behind him (possibly by you? ;)) then he'll let others do the work. He doesn't have too many chips left either so seems like he wants to extract the maximum he can and this is shown through by checking then calling the big bet on the flop. I think you're behind so should just give it up and check and hope it's checked down and he has KQ which might be your best chance as he's already called 2 big bets, he's unlikely to budge to much from a 3rd bet anyway imo. You still have a large-ish stack so no harm in giving it up after you've played at the pot on the flop.
