    you could raise/call to try and get action from worse hands but I would probably just jam it.

    kinda depends. if this is someone who is going to re-steal a high % r/c is what i'm doing. If he's just some random i just jam cus all too often u get flatted (if you open raise), then have to play a pot post w/ an awkward stack.
