Default Question about raise-size (w/HH)

SB and BB are ok players. There aren't really any draws on this board, and Im going to safely assume that a checkraise from one of them has KJ beaten. I can also safely assume that they arent tricky FPS players who will make a play with a marginal hand.


I know I have the donker crushed here. What should my raise size be here?

Blinds: $1/$2
6 players
Converter

Stack sizes:
UTG: $69.70
UTG+1: $98.60
CO: $191.70
Hero: $219.37
SB: $206.35
BB: $174.80

Pre-flop: (6 players) Hero is Button with K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
UTG calls, 2 folds, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises to $9</font>, SB calls, BB calls, UTG calls.

Flop: 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] ($36, 4 players)
SB checks, BB checks, <font color="#cc0000">UTG bets $10</font>, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises to $?</font>

$30-40 seems fine. Enough to tell SB and BB you have a real hand, fairly easy to get away from if they call.

My thoughts exactly (I raised to $35)

Any dissenting opinions?

Calling and raising are both fine, I'd be more likely to raise and felt it if UTG were a loose donk or something. I would lean towards just calling.
