Default shorthanded PL- ugly turn card

Poker Stars
Pot Limit Omaha Ring game
Blinds: $2/$4
4 players
Converter

Stack sizes:
Hero: $372.30
Button: $440.35
SB: $330
BB: $299.75

Pre-flop: (4 players) Hero is UTG with 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]
Hero calls, Button folds, SB calls, BB checks.

Flop: 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] ($12, 3 players)
<font color="#cc0000">SB bets $11.4</font>, BB folds, Hero calls.

Turn: 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] ($34.8, 2 players)
<font color="#cc0000">SB bets $24</font>, Hero?

Villain makes a small bet on the turn, which could mean weakness, but I don't have any real reads. If I call, whats my plan of action on the river, assuming another low card/spade comes and I'm faced with a large bet?

Interesting spot. I call and 2/3 pot a non spade river if checked to.

Reason: He's probably got a counterfeited low. The river will let you know.

This is why I like a raise. A counterfeited low still beats us for half the pot no? It would be nice if he folded.

I agree wtih antistuff. We are behind a lot here for the low half of the pot, but a nice raise to chase out the low that just got counterfeited would be great here.

Raising the turn is a risky. If you're beat, you won't know it until he repops you, at which point a lot of money will have gone in an already.

If you call, you get free information on the river. It would take balls of steel to fire two barrels with a counterfeited low on that board.
