why aren't you raising this flop?

You simply have to bet at least 150 (90 in pot) on the flop. You probably take it down right there. If you run into a re-raise or callers with the last heart, your done. You are not giving a strong hand a chance to win. You have 6 outs afer the flop for the boat as well as the case 3 to draw to with a strong bet after flop.

I lead this flop for $25-$30 and go from there.

Because I thought that's about the worst flop to raise a multiway unraised pot with.
