I like the PF check.

I would raise this flop, and call a 3-bet. If bet into on the turn, I call down from there.

PF's OK with me. I'd raise flop.
As played, though, I could see a raise on the turn. You have top two and could represent an even bigger hand such as a set or a made flush.. Winning this right here wouldn't be all bad, since if he has a heart in his hand, he has a redraw to a flush.

Just my $.02 worth...

I think you can raise the flop or the turn here. I like the flop though.

Is calling the flop and raising a relative blank card or [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] sexy?

I wish we had a read on the BB....

Raise preflop.

The problem with raising the flop is BB could jam an A high flush draw and you wouldn't know where you're at.

You could raise the turn, if called, take the free showdown unless you improve with a non flush card. Since you didn't raise preflop, your turn raise will look more legit.

I like this line, provided that we restrict "improving" to mean exactly a non-[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 7 or a 9.

b man,

I don't like a raise preflop as I don't think we get much out of it.

s-man,

Flop is meh, calling and raising are both fine IMO.

The turn brings almost the perfect opportunity (I;mn drunk and might have horribly misspelled that) to raise and fold to a 3-bet (obvious with the intention of checking behind on the river).
