Anyone mind this slowplay?

[dmtpt]

Since slowplaying is rightly discouraged in almost every situation, I wanted to see if y'all agreed with my decision that this fit into the exceptions, explore the principles, etc. I'm bored.

Can't remember if I had any reads, so treat as unknown.

Top set on a snoozefest board. There's hardly a card in the deck that will bother me on the turn, and even if I wanted to protect, a flop raise does nothing for me. Given my relative position, I won't even be able to protect against gutshots seeing the river (If I raise flop, all call, check turn to me, worst I can offer is 9:1 - plenty with implieds and pre/overcalls.)

Since protection isn't an option, my best line is to play for maximum value and hope it holds up or I catch the boat redraw.

The downside is if BB checks UI overs on a blank turn and callers check to me, I've missed the extra 1.5BBs I could have gotten on the flop. But I profit as long as two people enter the pot on the turn before I raise, allowing me to make 2+BBs. Plus, if someone turns top pair and raises, I get to three-bet and Jesus smiles. Also some marginally useful disguise value; think I'll get more river calls from a later raise, etc.

Pros outweight the cons? Pretty read-dependent?
