Default Re: call, raise or shove? why?

Any reads on villian? That might determine how I go about this one. If villian is pretty tight, I think calling the flop might be better. Does villian believe your tight? Either way checking UTG and then smooth calling a raise PF against a tight player should have villian worried, but he's not. Maybe villain is just continuation betting and stupid.
With that said, if we are still assuming he's tight. Then raising or shoving the flop with so little in the pot is bad. Why risk your whole stack on a draw for a small pot OOP. Which leaves us with the better play. Just call and see what the turn brings. Now, you make a straight, villian puts you on a flush draw on the turn. You check. He bets big.....NOW YOU CAN PUSH. If he's just contination betting a lot, and playing more loose. Raise the flop, and take a small pot. Oh and calling UTG with that garbage is fine once in a while, ignore the other posters. Just don't make a habit out of it.
