I would raise the turn the first time.

You really take the weirdest lines ever, all the time, whether that is good or bad, I don't know.

Like you call a bet and a raise on the turn when you hit, and then you want to donk the river? It's soooooo strange.

then just keep calling all my bets

why would you raise the turn? We just hit straight, or are you talking about 3betting

I raise the turn and cap if 3 betted.

I don't mind calling the turn.
But when it is raised behind you, and everyone has already put in 2 bets, why aren't you 3betting?
Easy money passed up.

The only reason to slowplay the turn twice is if you intend on check-raising the river.
But since I don't like risking the river check, I don't make that play.

On the turn, Villain raised over two opponents when the 6 hit.
What hand can he have here that is strong enough to value bet the river against both players?
We're hoping for either an overpair or exactly 65.
Neither is likely.
So Villain's turn raise could easily have been a free showdown play.


3betting the turn may gain you upwards of 4 big bets from loose callers.
A 100% successfully slowplayed turn wins you the same 4 bets.
However, if the slowplay is unsuccessful, you may lose all 4 of these bets.

I just don't see the gain.
