what are we actually hoping to achieve by raising here?

if we're called, we have no idea where we're at but we can be pretty confident we're behind.

if we're raised by button, we most likely have to fold.

if we're raised by either of blinds, we're compelled to call.

nobody is gonna raise us with hands that we're happy to risk ~half our fairly healthy stack against.

the risk of either of the above happening outweighs the benefits of winning 225chips. as someone else also said, at this point in a non-turbo, you should have a better idea which of the above is gonna happen but without reads, im folding this.
