couldn't get the converter to work on this hand for some reason. Do you cap the flop? Call down or release unimproved?

Against an unknown, I would cap the flop. Most players don't go nuts on the flop with more than one pair- they wait for the turn. I would guess he has a pair and a draw. If he's still adamant after that, you're almost certainly behind, but the pot is too big to fold. That river sucks, but then again a lot of rivers would suck here.

There may be a case for waiting for a safe turn to raise. In this case the turn couldn't have been more safe, and if he has a big draw your hand just got a whole lot better. I don't make this play often, but does anyone agree?
