I like....although depends on what EP thinks of you. If smoothcalling here will set off alarm bells for EP, I like raising. If EP won't think much of a call (or won't think at all) then I like just calling as not many cards hurt you on the turn (assuming he has a big PP, cards that hurt you: another 2, or his set card).

The more I think about it the more I like raising even more than you did. If has only AK then you're not getting any money out of him, but if he has a big PP you'll likely get him to push, which you instantly call.

Then again I don't know the villain (I assume this was from Friday's game, not BPC last night) so that might change my thinking as well.
