I am an idiot and can not get the hand converter to work....so here it is.

QUESTION: raise the river or try for overcalls?

5/10 6 Max
- No reads, just got to table

Hero is BB with 53 red
CU limps, button limps, SB completes, hero checks

Flop: 3 3 4 with two clubs
sb bets, hero calls, CU calls, button calls

Turn: red 7
sb bets, Hero Raises, CU calls, button calls, sb calls

River: 3
sb bets, hero calls, CU folds, button folds

sb - shows A7 for 3's full of 7's

You didn't specify the suit of the river, but Im assuming it was a blank. If so, this is a clear river raise.

Any flush draw missed so you're not going to get an overcall from busted flushes, but anybody with a pair now has a boat and has to call in a large pot.

If the river filled a flush draw, then it is a clear overcall, since hopefully one of the monkeys behind you will raise, and you can three-bet the field.

they have called til here, but that just means they are either on draws,or weak hands. if their draws have hit they will probably be calling the end anyways, if not they will be folding if you bet or not. i would probably raise and hopefully one of them has pocket 6s or somthing or hit a lame draw. if not youll get a bet out of the sb.
