I realize I was confused and was overplaying this hand, but still cannot find out where I did mistake. Could there be another way to improve this hand?
For that given reason it's kinda close either you raise or not. Most likely I'd just prefer of Calling and reevaluate it on further streets for the given odds. Giving up directly is kinda weak. But if you want to avoid any hard situations then just fold it.
