My raise was based on the feeling I was likely favourite, but probably not massive against his pre-flop limping range.
Decided to play it similar to how I would in a SnG or Tourney and try to gain fold equity pre-flop. He hadn't put much in, but I figured why not take it down now, and if he gets it in I'm likely flipping at least against overcards.
