Default Re: good raise?

i would virtually never play 567 unsuited. the problem is that you need multiway action to get odds, but you will make a second best hand often in a multiway pot.

good raise on fifth street. as i said above, yours is not the kind of hand that welcomes opponents to draw out against it. when your opponent makes two open pair, you should fold rather than call two big bets. your opponent bet on fourth and fifth street, so he is a big favorite to turn over the full house. also, there's a good chance he wouldn't have bet if he wasn't full, you having just raised him while clearly representing a straight.
