Though you described EP2 as loose, you didn't describe him as passive, which may tip this toward a fold. I'm calling here and expecting to lose; though I'm pretty sure you'll be pleasantly surprised more than the requisite 10% of the time needed to make this call profitable. In short: crying call. Anyone else?

Re: Fold to the river raise
This may be one of those rare instances where a river check/call may be in order. A value bet is not automatic where there's an overcard, a 3-flush and a one-card straight draw. And you may even induce a bluff if you're ahead getting that one bet anyway. Regardless, you get to see a showdown with this play. And this would be especially true against a loose player who may very well show you a 5 in addition to spades.
