(PS $2/$4): Pot Control

[Scotch78]

Though not particularly aggressive post-flop, UTG is a LAG pre-flop. Ax and small pairs are definitely in her range here.

BB is about as loose as they get, the type you can value bet K-high against on the river. Though he calls a ton, he also does his fair share of betting. In particular, he plays draws fast and strong.

So . . . you're confident that you have the best hand, but it's not great and there's probably no way to get rid of the BB before a showdown. Do you raise or call?
