Haven't posted in forever but I am making a renewed effort to tighten up my game.
SSH was of course going through my mind as I made this flop raise, but I'm not at all sure it was the right play. Calling seems worse and folding seems very weak but second opinions are always welcome.
If you think the flop raise is incorrect, is it because
a) my hand is too weak to ever make this play
b) this pot is too small to make this play, but if it were larger it's OK.
Comments about calling it down the rest of the way are also appreciated.
