This flop seems like a good one to flatcall with the intention of raising a good turn.

I thought this too, but also thought that a raise might get SB to 3-bet his 4 and knock out the other 2 players and/or make it much more likely that MP2 and UTG+2 would fold their overcards to a follow-through bet on the turn.

I also don't like raising the turn re-donk because if he can donk twice in one hand he can do it 3 times and I would puke if I didn't get to showdown with those two BBs.
Also given the relative positions you can't protect your hand so your raise can only be for value.

Good points. What percent of the time do you think SB has a 9? I think he plays a 2 like that never, and if MP had a 2 we would've known on the turn. I think I'm ahead here a lot of the time, so I'm raising for value.

Unless you have some kind of read you did not post, I think this is really a stretch. If he 3 bets, you are often drawing to 2 outs and don't really care if they are still in.

I don't think he 3 bets a 4 very frequently.

edit - never mind - I thought you were talking about the turn action.
