Default Re: 88 in raised pot on 567 flop

Why should I raise the flop here?

Am I raising for value, or as a semi-bluff in position to buy a free river card. I don't see any fold equity, but I may be wrong.

How much should I raise the flop if that is what I was going to do? Given effective stack sizes a push would be just about pot sized, so just shove?

sb c/c a 1/5 pot sized bet and folded on the turn.

i think you have a lot of FE. i mean, this is either a monster, (flopped straight), or A7 trying to end the hand now. it's pretty easy to see where you are at. just bump it up to a pot sized bet, and you'll see what's up.

by bump it up to a pot sized bet, do you mean to what the pot was before BB bet out $10 (i.e. raise to $50), or raise to $80 after I complete the $10 bet to me?

If I raise to $50, I don't see anyway that I can possibly fold given the effective stack sizes, so shouldn't I just push?
