Default Hey Newbie...ease up on all of the hand posts.

You have the entire rest of your life to post hands--you don't have to post them all in the next fifteen minutes.

Please check out the following thread:

I call this river.

If I had any type of read on SB, it sure would tilt the my choice here in a more definitive direction.

However, against an unknown I would call.
My reasoning: a raise is likely to push off UTG and keep the action open, and risking a 3-bet from SB which could be some trouble. A call is more likely to get UTG to call, thus gaining you the same amount of bets. Of course this is assuming you are behind.

That's O.K...just remember, it's always good to completely chew before you swallow.

I would not raise the flop. Raise the river for sure.

Goodnews has it down perfectly. Go for the overcall is what I would do. Gain a possible bet for the price of 1, instead of possibly losing 2 bets. Textbook play straight out of ToP.

Huh.

I definitely raise this river. Anything else is incredibly weak tight, IMO. Sure, they have a full house, or a straight-flush here sometimes, but more often than not you raise, they both call. Or you raise, one of them 3-bets, you call, and your hand is good.

This is very clear value raise.
