I don't feel strong enough to raise the turn but a fold seems too weak to me. What would you do? At this pot size I think every draw will call my raise on the flop.

I would raise the flop with that card.
As I see it it's the best hand at the moment (with the exception of someone holding 99,TT,or JJ that wouldnt have been played v aggressively preflop). I agree that every draw will call but on the other hand why let them draw cheaply. You can always fold that hand when a spade,7 or 2 comes. On the other hand with 6 overcards, spades, 7s and twos theres's not to much space for nonscary cards to come so maybe this raise is not such a good idea after all :) i dont know what to do here, but if not raise I'd rather fold so raise it is i guess.

If BU called rather than 3-bet, I would also bet the turn and probably fold to a raise but I'm not quite sure about that. If there was a 3-bet on the flop i guess I'd check/fold the turn.

raise Flop!!!

You got an overpair and have to protect your Hand. You dont wanna give 6 Outers a cheap Turncard for just 1SB.
