How much should I be re-raising to here?

Is $10 ok?

Enough for EP to fold a flush draw. This means he will also probably fold most mediocre holdings, but you can't win them all (but you can lose them all if you let him stay in with K8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] or whatever crap he is playing).

Yep, tis one of the reasons why I think re-raising here is a must, get rid of those draws that could possibly be giving me reverse implied odd's on one of my draws, 910o, A10[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] etc

This is really bad. You're out of position with almost the nut low and you're building the pot with no folding equity and a fair amount of money left.

You are only making him call $6 to win 18. You have to make him call a lot more to pick up folding equity. I'd reraise to at least $16 maybe a little bit more...make him call something like 12 to win 24 or even, or 16 to win 28. Your raise really did nothing but build the pot. You want to pick up some folding equity with your raise in this spot i'd say because you have to catch to improve.

Without a read I call and then take his stack for being a retard if I hit.

If your opponent is on a draw then reraising to $10 with this hand is the worst thing you can possibly do.
