And I think I 3bet the flop.

Boo. Does a flop 3-bet protect my hand? Are there a lot of turn cards that destroy my hand? Will my equity be higher on the turn if a blank comes? Will I be well position to take advantage of a turn blank?

I suppose a flop raise doesn't do much in the way of hand protection. SB probably won't fold getting at least 11:1 if we 3-bet. On the turn we don't want to see: a 9, a 7, a K, a Q, an A, or an 8. Any of those could give someone a straight or a higher two pair.

So our equity shoots way up on the turn, assuming everyone is cold calling with a decent draw.
