Down to 3 handed. I think I probably should have been a little more careful on this one. Villain was pretty rocky. I also thought the preflop raise was a little suspicious as Villain had been making 3-4xBB raising in the past. Nevertheless, I decided to go with my hand. What do you think the best way to go about this hand is? Check & lead a non scary flop? Villain always makes continuation bets so checking would give me no information.

yes and yes. Reraising would be tempting if it were a 9 handed SnG and you were already in the money, because the difference between 3rd and 2d is so small. Here though, finishing 2d is important and overcards would be good enough to chase me if he bets them.
