I call here. Raising commits you and only brings along overpairs (and maybe 1010/99). I call and bet 2k on the turn if he checks. If an overcard hits and he bets again you have given yourself a much tougher decision, but that's the price of doing bussiness, decide based on any read you have and bet size. Generally I'd fold to an A/K and call against a Q (although I'd fold to a river bet). Raising the flop works too, but I think calling is best.

I generally raise the flop because if a spade or an overcard comes on the turn (18 outs) I've got no clue where I stand. If you flat call what do you do when a spade falls and villain checks or bets? Am I missing out on too much value by raising the flop?
