Was I right to lead with this? I didn't think this was a slowplay situation. SB, MP2, and CO are LP.

Thanks, should I have done anything differently? I wanted to get more cash out of them, but after flopping top set and going for overcalls earlier today I gave players a cheap chance to see the turn/river, in which one hit their flush on me. With the two to a suit on there, was I right playing it straight, or should I have checked it through hoping for a C/R on the turn?

There are places to slowplay, but I don't think this is one, given the flush draw and straight draw out there.

The flop didn't hit anyone. Next hand.

Disclaimer: I'm not good.

slowplaying is all about second best hands. here's another example where a slowplay won't make a second best hand, but could let someone pass you:

reads:
CO sucked
MP2 was decent (PF at least)
