I don't have a problem raising here. I think villain has a smaller flush more often than KJ or a set.

The more I think about it, I think that I usually raise/call here, but don't cap. I'm a little bit worried, mostly about KJ, I guess he could have QJ or JT here also. It's close, but I think raise/call > call > raise/cap.

With the $2/$3 blind structure in your game, I can see more J hands calling from the small blind than normally.

I think there are more hands in Villain's range that we still beat to warrant more aggression.
And since the next raise would be a cap, I go there too.

Full steam ahead.

Isn't it a 1/3 blind structure online?

It's 1/3 live and it was 1/3 on Party. In fact, I've never seen a 3/6 game with a 2/3 blind structure.

I would just call on river unless I've seen villain go way to far with mediocre hands. W/o reads tho, calling down seem a much safer route.

Neither had I.
Until now.

Probably generates a lot more action.

Just means you play 27o from the SB because you are getting 29-1 in family pots, lol.
