Default Re: Preflop call in NL?

You should absolutely complete here. Being OOP in an unraised pot here is obviously not ideal but if you don't hit the flop (i.e. flop a straight or a flush or a straight and/or flush draw, two pair, or trips) it's easy to get away from this hand and you're being offered like 10-1 immediate odds (with potentially huge implied odds).

Completing w/ suited connectors here is 100% correct.

EDIT: Also, if your opponents are going to call PSBs on the river you should just be smart about what you're showing down. Obviously bluffing is not advisable and you need to plan the hand so that at every stage you know how far you're willing to go w/ whatever it is you end up holding. "If I make a flush am I willing to commit my whole stack?" (the answer to this is almost always yes) or "Is bottom two pair likely to be good and if so how much can I get out of these guys?" "Are my trips getting outkicked," etc.
