Call. No point in raising (you don't want a reraise) and folding would be moronic [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Why doesn't he want a reraise? I'd love to be all-in on this flop. You're a favorite to improve to at least a straight.

Call is reasonable, but I see nothing wrong with a modest raise here.

Agreed there.

While being allin is a favorable situation, I think that calling is the best option for 2 reasons:

1) Less risk when you do not hit
2) Possibly more action when you do. Calling here encourages others to call as well, which is what you want. You have two more streets to get all your chips in.

Why not a small raise that you expect everyone to call? Sweeten the pot when you're in a very favorable position.
