villain is 26/23 and we hadn't been playing many pots with each other. my image should be pretty solid, haven't done anything crazy.

what's my play on the turn? i wanna raise it up because zomg i have a straight flush draw. on the other hand, is he ever folding any better hands here?

I would flat call the turn here in hopes he bets a worse hand again on the river. I think if you flat call here you need to call most rivers. If you hit your st8 or flush raise for value.

If your not comfortable calling a three shot unimproved, then you need to raise here on the turn.

Why not raise the on the flop? SB could standard cbet here with anything, right?

As played I would prolly call turn & pray on river. If you hit str8/flush/str8 flush def. raise for value, otherwise call.

Exactly, why raise and have him fold a worse hand.
