Raise it up and do not put another dime into the pot unless you improve on the river.

I disagree with this as I do with most free showdown raises. Call/call or raise and value bet the river are the choices IMO.

agreed on the river bet.. If we are not 3-bet here on the turn this is a very standard value bet for me if another blank falls off... and an easy river bet/fold if the card is semi-sacry.

I think I just raise the flop.

I know that you\'re pretty much going to either love or hate the turn card, and that argues for waiting. But, I think I\'d rather just raise now and collect the value from the weakish draws that will come along for 2 on the flop, but maybe not on the turn. Raising the flop you can use your position on the turn a little bit better, and it\'ll be easier to tell where you\'re at if you run into further aggression.
