Raise from the start and don't stop raisng the flop. You do have the nuts right?

Yeah, ok. You have the nuts, so raise. This is pretty simple logic and I admit it's often correct. Are you sure it's correct here though?

My thinking is this:

- I can't fold anyone that I might want to fold, with the remotely possible exception of Qcx
- Anyone who folds I prefer to have call for 1 SB
- Players make a lot more dumb calls for 1 SB then they do for 2
- This is an action flop that may be raised behind me, especially with a short-stack in the game
- anyone willing to call 2 on the flop may well be willing to call 2 cold on the turn.


Still like a raise? I'm not convinced my play was the best, that's why I posted it. I am convinced that a slowplay has merit with the nut made hand + near nut draw on a flop that may be raised behind me...
