SB is a recreational player, 60/15 from 21 hands. Very passive postflop too.
The main reason why I posted this hand is because I am not sure if I should raise as a semibluff on the flop. I have straight and flush outs and an overcard and, if the villain flopped a pair, I am at least even-money against him. On one hand, I'd raise as a semibluff because when I hit gin I will win a big pot, but on the other hand, bluffing a recreational player is a bad idea to begin with.
