The raise is for information. If you plan on playing this hand a raise is important here and may save you money down the line.

This is a classic hand to raise for information.

You have a good hand and while the action is cheap you need to find out as much as possible. It also gets you a free card most of the time therefore saving you a bet.

I disagree with you in this instance.

Raising for information is overrated. If he flat calls and bets the turn, what hand does he have then?

Read this entire thread.

Hopefully that thread will help you along here. A lot of people raise this flop, especially "for information." That doesn't make it the right play.
