Villian is 34.20.3
What kind of approach do you take in a situation like this? Is raising for a free SD good here?

Just call down, that guy looks like he could 3bet you with worse hands, the pot is really small and I dont see any better hands folding

Re: SB vs BB against LAG
 

this is fine, is your line 2bet/fold on turn if u are raised? i like just calling down to let him know he cant bluff without u calling down lightly

Re: SB vs BB against LAG
 

Simply calling down is another option (and if you call the turn, a river bet is worth considering if you're checked to, although I probably wouldn't bet on that particular river card, although maybe I should). Villain is highly unlikely to fold a better hand on the turn in this instance, so a showdown raise is mainly only beneficial if Villain had a worse hand (entirely possible) and wouldn't have fired again on the river with it (I can't really tell just from his stats what his tendencies are as far as this goes, although they certainly do suggest that he might be a 3-barreler in blind vs. blind battles) and also wouldn't have called on the river.

No it sucks and not for the reasons others mentioned imo...
QQ and weak K's make up such a small portion of his range that most rivers are the easiest value bet ever.

Don't raise for a free SD just because you can. It's an easy play to overuse. With this hand, on this board, against this player, I prefer just calling.
