Default Standard turn raise, but what about getting capped?

Party Poker (6 max, 5 handed) converter

MP has shown down some goofy hands, for example T3Sooted from the button after CO therein, BB here, raised. So I'd love to get it heads up with him. BB is TAG, probably aware of that fact, but I think he thinks I'm retarted.

So what about the turn here?

Preflop: Hero is Button with K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>. MP limps, Hero raises, SB folds, BB calls, MP calls.

Flop: 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
BB checks, MP checks, Hero checks.

Turn: T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
BB checks, MP bets, Hero raises, BB 3bets (immediately), MP caps (thought about it for a while) Hero Calls.

River: 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
BB checks, Hero folds, blah blah.

Bet the flop.
I"m not sure if I would raise teh turn either, espeically if BB is a TAG and he thinks your retarded. But, i'm really not sure, the turn is confusing...
Bet the flop and it wouldn't be.

How's that? I bet the flop, they both call. Then the turn comes, BB bets, and MP raises. Then you fold?

How about this: They both call, then check to me on the turn, and I get check 3bet. What then?

Bet the flop. Get BB to fold a better hand, and get value out of MP whom you're likely ahead of. Once you do that, you have the option of giving yourself a free card, which I would probably do, assuming they both called and the T-clubs came.

You've got semi-bluffing potential, but not against MP who will see the river with any pair, any club, any straight draw, and possibly ace high.

How about this: bet flop, both call (wanting to c/r the turn). Check the turn behind and fold the river UI. I doubt they are donking the turn because they expect you to bet, especially considering they think your a retard. Most 5/10ers like to c/r the turn with a strong hand (if this is 5/10).
just my .02

cheers.

Is there nobody who thinks that raising here is wrong? and that calling the cap is wrong?
