Cap the flop when the action gets back to you.

You don't think I get more bets just by calling the turn bet? If I raise, I would think there'd be a very good chance that UTG and UTG+2 would fold, and MP2 would shut down.

Ah! Good point. I was just thinking about the first part, calling to keep people in, but once it gets back to me, you're right, that looks like a good spot to cap.

With a pot this big, people are going to call your turn raise with all kinds of crap hoping to improve on the river but aren't going to call a river raise if they miss. You also don't give MP2 a chance to 3-bet so you can cap.
