Thoughts on all streets appreciated.
Preflop is marginal.
In retrospect, I would have prefered to raise this flop to find out where I'm at, but fell into a "if I'm behind I want to save bets, if I'm ahead I want to keep him bluffing his hand" mode of thinking.
The turn raise is for a few reasons:
1) I want SB to fold a king. Yes, I think he's folding a king on this board if it's two bets back to him. He shouldn't have slowplayed.
2) If UTG+1 has a flush draw, I get my bets in when I'm ahead.
3) If he doesn't, I'm going for a showdown checking behind him.
