This spot really isn't awkward yet. If you raise and get 2 calls, and the turn is an offsuit Q, then you're in an awkward spot. Here raising is really the only option: it's a great time to get money in when your bet could easily be one of a zillion draws/semibluffs.

getting it in to a 3bet by btn? 3bet by sb?

On the whole I think raising makes this hand easier. Btn needs a big hand to continue unless he wants to make a sick play.

I'll get it in HU vs. SB yeah

I think calling and raising are both fine.

i mean i think i might have completely messed up this hand. but here is the rest of it since the discussion of flop isnt very interesting.
