Fold, unless you think you

Fold, unless you think you have some fold equity but given the stack sizes and the lead for pot I doubt this guy is going anywhere.  You will do much better shoving preflop, if you had any other kind of draw in addition to this, like two pair or a straight then i'd be happy to ship it, as it is you're relying 100% on a club draw which may already be crushed.

Fold

This also depends a bit on gameflop, ie. has this guy been limping before at 50/100 or could he be trapping with a strong hand, etc. ?
However, this guy will most likely not believe you the Ace since you checked back pre-flop and you'd usually 3bet-shove all your Aces and good Kings, so he won't fold here if he has any piece of them board - and even if he did not connect, most of his high card type hands have a gutshot on this board, so they won't fold either.
He could also hold a higher flush-draw which has you crushed.

Thanks for your answers,

I did fold there but was wondering if it was the right play.

I would just jam this

I'd jam this for sure. If he is a thinking player then he should know that you don't have any AX or KX (maybe even QX?) in your range when you check behind preflop. If not then he can probably bet/fold here with a pair anyways.
I'd expect to have a ton of fold equity.
