Fold the turn when SB doesn't slow down and bets into you. I don't understand why you are raising. Your options are either to call him down, or fold. Raising this turn does nothing for you here IMHO, it's pretty unlikely that you are ahead, and very well could be drawing dead, or to two outs.I don't see an SB three-betting a flush draw here, or TPTK, unless you've got a great read that he's super LAG.

actually i like this hand just fine.call him down without a read.a lot of people overvalue top pair, and even against two pair, you have enough odds to hit a better two pair or a set (8 outs).aseem

If you are going to raise the turn, you should have just capped the flop. When the SB kept betting into you on the turn, you should have just folded. He probably has you beat, and he might have you finished already.
