    Wastin' away again in margaritaville....
    Raise to about 50$ or fold. Depends on if I am feeling saucy and what my table image is...


    No fear, go deep or go home!

    It's an easy call, probable raise. You both have deep stacks though, I might just call and see how the hand develops. If either of you had less I'd just push. The risk with raising big is that he probably has an overpair and would go all in, which leaves you with a tough decision and a probable coin flip hand (at best).

    Almost looks like he has JJ or something of the like here and is trying to protect his hand from a flush draw. But that seems too obvious and I'm sure you posted this because it's trickier than that eh?

    I like raising to $50, especially if you check raised like this before and showed down a winner. If he pushes, I'd lay this down and wait until you've got more substantial holdings against him to battle for your blinds.

    I would call. He likely has an overpair, and you have 14 outs, with a good chance of destacking your opponent if the flush comes, and a great chance to destack him if you hit two-pair or trips.

    The problem with raising is that you'll be forced to call if he reraises all in, and moreover if he just calls and you miss on the turn you're going to be in a very tough spot. If you had position on him you could take a free card, but out of position you're in a conundrum. If I was going to raise, I think would just push here.

    I like the raise.... you will find out where you stand very quickly.
    I agree that his bet looks like a defensive one, but you do have outs.
    It's one of those hands that has huge potential if you hit, so I would raise then bet the turn hard if a diamond, 7 or 6 comes out.
