Turned nuts with a bet and a raise to me.

i would raise the turn. A set, 2 pair or in the best case a smaller flush will call you or even raise you.

Point B: I told myself that if the board pairs on the river I was folding and I knew that if I raised they would fold. . . .
In the end, utg called with AK for two pair, cutoff folded a set of 2's and I won the hand.

First, if both players fold to your raise, why is this better than just smooth calling and letting a set / 2 pair have proper odds to outdraw you? By not raising, you don't give your opponents an opportunity to make a mistake for their stack. I think that if your opponent is going to call your bet on the river when its checked to you, he will also call the raise on the turn.

I understand that when you play with people everyday, you have to adapt your style so that you are not too predictable. If your oppoenents are really folding sets here if you raise, then the best way to exploit this would be to bluff more frequently, not slow down with your nut hands.

raising the turn is a must. ppl will call when they still have outs against you, don't wait till there are no more cards to come.

I reraise the turn 1000% of the time.
