Call. Your best scenario would be that some toad in EP is plotting a c/r, and everyone cold-calls to you, and you 3-bet their ass to get value out of the big draw and perhaps get a free card on the turn. Raising kind of sucks because it blows away some of the field, it only cleans up 2 outs (bigger aces), and if you get check-raise-3-bet, you end up in a HU or 3-way pot paying the max as an underdog. I think the SSHE standard applies here for keeping your customers in when you're drawing. Change this so an early player leads into the field and everyone calls, then you've got a raise.

Call is all I see here. You gain tons of opportunity for EPs coming along for the ride for one bet that you may have lost for 2. Like PJ says if its C/R (or if the bet was from EP) and you have callers, raise away.

Call for all the reasons PJ cited. You don't want anyone to fold here. And your outs other than a straight are dubious. No point to raising here. An added bonus is that since you are the button, it give a smaller flush a chance to lead into you if it hits....no c/r necessary.

you are going to see the river %100 of the time-right?-right. So why not limp raise an EP CR, most of the time it will get you where you want to be for the cheapest price/most won
