I assume this is a trivial raise - I have position, a great two-way hand and the BB is likely to have a very wide calling range.

BB bets, MP folds.
In LHE (my best game) this is a no-brainer raise - we call it the free card play. A gutshot, a backdoor nut flush draw and a backdoor low draw, not to mention three overcards, aren't much to write home about on their own, but together they give us tons of possibilities - we would love to raise and have BB check to us on the turn so we can see 2 more cards if we want or even go ahead and bet the turn if we pick up a strong draw.
I would have to have a solid read that the free card play wouldn't work to not try it here.
Thoughts?
