Default slowplay or raise?

PokerStars 3/6 Hold'em (10 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is MP2 with 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. MP3 posts a blind of $3.
UTG calls, UTG+1 calls, UTG+2 calls, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Hero calls, MP3 (poster) checks, CO calls, Button calls, SB completes, BB checks.

Flop: (9 SB) 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(9 players)</font>
SB checks, BB checks, UTG checks, UTG+1 checks, <font color="#CC3333">UTG+2 bets</font>, HERO...

Yeah, I know they look loose preflop but in these PS 3/6 tables, most of them have common sense to get out with a marginal holding.

I think the pots large enough that raising won't wipe the field. Aces with agros may give us lots of action too, so I raise, call a 3-bet, go again on the turn.

You need to raise to give gutshots incorrect odds to draw. This is not a safe flop for your set against 8 opponents.

I started to write 'call', assuming 5-6 ppl in the pot. But I was not sure, cause of flush AND straight possibilities. But 9 players! Raise and pray you still ahead.

Wow 9 players. With the ace out plus flush draw i would raise slow playing is just giving up to much value. I would guess anyone who planned on calling one here would call two and someone may 3-bet and you can capp. If everyone folds o well you win a decent pot.

Don't, raise plz.

There's too many ways for Villains to improve past our hand here, and the coordinated board means we'll likely get incorrect cold-calls. Nice table selection.
