Default Re: 1/2 Limit, 2nd nuts, raise?

Cap every street. Only QJ is currently beating you and there are a lot of second best hands and draws to pay you off here. Slow down if a flush or four to a straight (i.e. a Q or J) hits though.

Also (and you're going to hate me for this), it's not wrong to just call the flop, get some calls behind and play your top set like a draw. Depends on how you feel. But there's nothing wrong with going for broke here, it's up to you.

The reason I mention both is because the expected value of each action is so close it doesn't really matter how you play it imo. The pot isn't large so winning it right there isn't so important. It's really a question of how loose your opponents are and if they'll call 2 bets cold with inferior hands.
