Sure, raise it up. Take the initiative, build a pot for the times you hit your set. As played, since you've played it as a set-mine hand, I just let it go on the flop.

Hand 2: Don't open limp, like ever.
rrumsey
pop it pre in hand 1, lets us cbet and win a ton imo on that flop

hand 2, pre flop bet and a cbet for sure.

dont be scared to win hands pre, blind stealing is great bc they dont fight back too much.

fold flop in hand 1, and raise preflop in hand 2. keep at it youll get their gl.

i think i spelled their wrong, unless you want to go somewhere after, there*
