I agree with raise the flop. Whether to bet the turn or not depends entirely on villain. Usually you should just take a free card, but there are some loose players I would definitely bet all the way.

I'd like to hear some plans for the turn and river after raising the flop. Also, if anyone can figure out the difference in $ that we gain by just calling the flop bet vs. raising please post something. I have a sneaking suspicion that since we're not knocking out any higher flush draws or cleaning up potential pair outs (since we need runner-runner), a flop raise has a lower EV. What are the chances CO is folding an ace if we raise?
