Read on SB? Against most opponents this is a fold after the checkraise unless you think he could make this play with Ace high or a lower pocket pair. His play looks like donkey premium overpairs.

This is almost straight out of SSH chapter '2 over-pair hands'. It is better to just call the flop with a thin edge on a raise and raise a good turn card where the edge is much greater. If a bad card falls on the turn, you either call or fold depending on circumstances.

 I don't like the preflop raise at all, you're not isolating and really building the pot with this marginal holding is not optimal. That being said, I like the flop raise (would have been better if you didn't raise preflop) and frankly this is a pretty easy turn fold.
