Raise flop. As played call..... whats the problem!?!?

If you think you're ahead on the flop the only hand the turn really helps is 53. I agree you probably want to raise the flop to protect against the flush draw but I don't hate the way you played it. You aren't representing as strong a hand as you have on the flop so I don't think most villains need as big of a hand to play back at you on the turn. You're crushing nearly everything else in his range except for AA.

Call if you like money!

insta. def raise flop. not only for this hand but if semibluffing is part of your game you cant start raising with draws and slowplaying made hands. and if semibluffing is part of your game then they'll put you on fd and jam. happy days

ok im just making sure....i called. The reason i didn't raise the flop was his small flop bet confused me. I definitely think I should have raised the flop.
