Given this board and say a reasonable prediction that there is definately one high PP out there and possibly two is a call here too risky?

Obviously if i call im trying not to scare them off on what looks like a crappy board.
The bet sizes look like they havent hit yet.

Turns out the guy to my left had QQ and i ended up just calling and turn comes Q end of story. <<<< Its not too dangerous to let stuff like that happen every once in a while is it?
you cant handle the truth!

There was a bet, a raise and a cold call already on the flop. Someone(s) likes their hand(s). Reraise. Make it $9 or $10 to go. Be prepared to put all your chips in on this flop.

 make it like $15 or maybe a bit more and get the rest in the next chance you get.

It's not so much that it's risky, it just doesn't make much sense. If he has an overpair he's probably not folding anyway, so just get the money in before a scare card comes. How dumb would you feel if the turn was an ace or a ten, you bet, and he folded his QQ?
