Raising the flop does nothing. There are 4.5 big bets in the pot, raising here does not protect. And you get more value out of raising the turn since this flop hit most 3-betting preflop hands.

When there is more than 1 player in there, then the flop raise to thin the field seems better.

I raise this flop and not for protection but for value. This is the type of board that the other player probably hit and you still have outs to a FH if he has the straight or flush. If another scare card hits I might change tempos but on this board I am raising the flop.
