Default My thinking

Am I raising or calling in this spot? Villain didn't cap turn. At the same time, would villain c/r with overs and a flush draw on the turn?

I think calling would be prudent. Two pair is a strong but vulnerable holding. You're probably not going to win this pot even 50% of the time, you're only calling because you lose more by folding than by calling.

My thinking is, villain would cap any turn with a hand that beats mine and the only hand I have to worry about on the river is an aggressively played overs+flushdraw. However, more often than not a hand like AcKc would not check raise this turn. Without a turn cap, the most likely hand seems to be AA->QQ or AJ, not a set.

I'm not sure calling is so obvious, maybe I need to be raising in this spot
