I don't like the turn raise. I'd probably just call. If an 8 falls try to see a cheap showdown otherwise check/fold.

You are calling a .50 bet into a $10 pot on that turn with TP? It is PAINFULLY obvious that SB is drawing and wants to do so cheaply, so your solution is to let him? Nobody in this hand appears to like their hands much...if someone in here liked it they'd raise the turn before it got to you. Hero has a decent chance of having the best hand here. Maybe he should go somewhere like 2/3 pot with the raise but I think a raise is clearly in order here.

You're right about SB, but for some reason I'd be unsure on the turn that my hand is good. Might be the 3 callers of the pot sized flop bet, but I'd be skeptical of my holding. I could likely be wrong here.

I do like your line about a 2/3 pot sized raise if your going to raise it here. If you think your hand is good then you should raise it here.
