should i raise or call?

With this bet villain must have his hand made, something like two pair or a set of 5 or Kings and is trying to protect from flush. I think you must make a small raise to make him reraise you. Besides i don`t really like to slowplay sets. That`s just an idea, let`s hear what more expierenced players have to say

Well, that's an interesting question. I think both are fine and have their good and bad sides. It depends on board texture and opponent to figure out which one is best.

If opponent is very aggro in these spots I would lean to calling. If the flop is very drawy on the other hand, raising is better.

Difficult to say which gets the most value out of your hand.

Against unknown on this drawy board, Id raise it up. And not too small either, cause we don't want to give the draws a good price.

yeah on a dry board I would call, I think on this board both is ok.

anyway, here is the result
