54s - Big Draw vs Possible Stealer
Back in my Limit days, I would float a lot preflop with suited connectors like this. But in NL, should I be seeing a flop here with this hand against a possible stealer? Or do I just get myself in too much trouble?
Once I get to the flop, easy Checkraise All In, correct?
Tournament:
$2+0.25 Buy-in with Rebuys
Blinds t250/t500/t50
Currently 7-handed
Still far enough away from the money not to worry about it
Reads:
Only been at this table for a couple of orbits, table playing a little bit loose.
Villain - hasn't done anything out of the ordinary yet, seems straightforward

I figure that regardless of whether he has a hand, or he is stealing, I can expect him to bet most of the time. On top of that, I can expect a bet that is sized such that my checkraise all in may put him to a very tough decision with sufficient fold equity, and I don't mind a call or a fold at that point. Am I thinking about this correctly?
