Anyone like call, raise turn?

Seems pretty wreckless without a read. There's just not a reason to do this.

Of course there is! This is a blind vs. blind battle. He could have a lot of stuff, and has no reason to respect a flop raise from you - in a buyin like this he could easily think you are putting him on a steal and raising him with any two you called preflop with, and thus if he has a hand like Q5s he could easily reraise you knowing you're in a tough spot even if you have top pair. On the other hand he could have AA and is trying to trap.

By waiting until the turn, if he has overs most of the time the turn does not hit him and if he plays back at you, you can be more sure he has you beat.
