I don't hate the limp preflop. Some folks say you can play Kxs like a small pp if you can see the flop for cheap like you did. Alternate line would be to raise the flop as a semi-bluff which would allow you to probably see the next two cards for free as it is often checked to the raiser on the turn.

As played, I am raising on the turn an amount that no drawing hand will feel comfortable calling nor would have odds to call.

raise somewhere, either the flop or the turn, and when you raise, make it a real one.

I'm definitely raising the flop. You have a good equity edge against 3-4 opponents. Let the dead money pay you Sklansky $.

I'm find with PF. With so many limpers and being on the CO, I limp here about 90%.

Raise either the flop or turn.

I'd raise it to $16.

Raise the flop to juice it up, then slam the turn.

I'd prolly re-raise five more, expecting one or two callers. Then slam the turn with a pot sized bet.

As played, you should have re-raised about 10-15 bucks.

Just to narrow in on this a little... In this general situation I much prefer raising the flop than waiting for the turn. On the turn our equity is usually going to go either way up or way down, depending on what falls. (In this case, I'd say it is about unchanged, but this is unusual) On the flop we have several players trapped who will surely pay off a raise. But unless they improve (they usually won't) they will not pay anything on the turn. Any equity edge we have on the flop will be gone on the turn in the normal case.

Therefore if I raise my draw at all here, it's definitely on the flop.

Pound that [censored] on the flop. And if flop was a misclick certainly pound that [censored] on the turn.

I was going to pump the flop but after analyzing some PT stats I noticed I was too aggressive with my draws. On the turn I decided to just call, figuring there were only 4 cards that I didnt wanna see at most (I doubt hearts a lot, as was even doubting the threes). Given the action I thought a cold call was the best play, given the LAGgy nature of the table, and the bring down the HAMMMER on the river.
