call the flop and then depending on how much he bets or if he bets the turn i would shove/pot the turn.

i don't like this. to me, if he bets the flop AND turn, his hand is pretty strong and he's probably cool w/getting all the money in.

if I wait for the turn to raise, i end up putting in most of my stack as a pretty decent dog.

Why are we raising? What do we put him on? Certainly there is nothing terribly wrong about raising and it's def +EV, but I have a feeling calling might be more +EV against a lot of opponents.

Like I said earlier, the range we raise and get it in vs we are a dog to. So we are not really raising for value hoping for a call. Raising folds out midpairs and stuff like that, but I think we can get those to fold on the turn/river equally cheap. So I'm not sure why we should raise here 99% of the time.

I guess it feels a bit yuck when we just call and he bets big on a blank turn and we have to fold, but almost no one thats not completely spewtarded will do that with anything less than AK.

You honestly can't really go wrong either way in this hand.

I tend to call here more than many, but given that you don't have any history, I'd raise it up here. I tend to think people aren't that strong when they first make this play, and it's some really cheap metagame.

Depends a whole bunch on stack sizes, reads, history.

In this particular spot I like a call based on all of these, and because my draws aren't all that obvious so my implied odds are very good when I hit, and I can just get away if I whiff and he keeps betting.

Plus I think we have 15 outs here exactly never.
