    I'm trying to see if I get this right so don't take this as advice.

    bet/raise=19.60
    pot=32.30
    bet(bet+pot)
    19.60(19.60+32.30)=.377

    37.7<39.6=+EV

    So call.

    On a paired board? If it wasn't for the stove numbers, I'd fold and make a small mistake.

    No pair on board, I can't get my money in fast enough.

    I wouldn't have raised the paired board to get into this spot but now that we did raise folding seems really silly.

    I like both calling here (intending to take it away on the turn if shown weakness or he's two barreling too much) and just raising the flop to end it here.

    Given the way the hand played out, it's pretty easy to put him on either a big pair or two big clubs. Terrible hands to be up against.

    I still like raising if it gets him off of like AK/AQish stuff and gets him to flat (or even fold!) a lot of his pocket pairs.
