I have to agree with raise being better than call on hand 2, you have no more information and there are so many cards you hate to see on the river.
What are SBs c-bet % I bet it's high for SB - seems to be a fishy player in calling his blinds.

I could tell my self that SB puts in a c-bet light, the only person we should really be concerned about is the smooth caller behind (as he could be calling with a big pair - a mistake but a problem) I think a hefty over pot raise may win the hand but otherwise fold.

Additionally a 3bet in position pre might not be a bad plan to have a better idea where we are at on the flop? (this is is one I'm not so sure about so grill me if you disagree).
