When should you raise when facing a flop c-bet?

Oblioo tells us when to raise the flop for value, and when to raise as a bluff in a new coaching tonight from 19:00 GMT.

Our cash game expert oblioo is back for a new coaching session themed around making profitable flop raises.

He'll be analysing situations where Hero defends pre-flop, and then faces a continuation bet from an opponent on the flop. 

Discussions during the coaching will largely be based around the two questions:

• When should I raise the flop for value?
• When should I raise the flop as a bluff?

To kick off the discussion, oblioo has invited you to get involved by telling him what you'd do in the following spot:

MP opens, Hero flats on the BTN with 87, and the blinds fold. The flop comes down K53 and MP bets 2/3 pot. What do you do now?

Even if you're unsure about your decision being the most optimal, please let us know what you would do, why you would do it and with what other hands you would do the same with so that we can help you improve your game!

Post your answers, or any hand histories you'd like to have analysed, in this dedicated thread:
