Default Re: 25NL Top set, raise river?

So your plan was to check when you've got the nuts.
then raise when the worst card possible hits and the person leads into you?

FPS

Bet the flop. (as you realized, this is a horrible hand to slowplay) I exercise pot control once the draw gets there. It appears he makes weak ass bets... call him down. He's not going to fold a flush here ever.

As played, you have to call because your hand is underrepresented. I think you're good at least 1 time in 4.

If the flop came down K72, would you guys be in favor of checking behind?

Sometimes. But mostly just bet it. Why? You're going to cbet with weaker hands and air aren't you? Since your bet doesn't always mean monster, why not cbet it and build a pot. You should get value with your monsters. Will they fold sometimes? Sure.

As for the river, do you give a random villain credit for having hit his draw? Is this a call or a raise? Comments on all streets appreciated, as always.

They may not have the flush or straight which is why you call. But he's not folding any flush or straight and probably folding anything you do beat... so I don't see the point in raising?
