There is no benefit to dropping the hammer on a re-raise. Based on your reads, your not going to get any more money out of them by doing that. They simply have nothing to call you with.

You hesitantly call the re-raise, and hope for a complete blank on the river, or even better they make their hand. You can then act like your draw failed, and check over. THIS is when you slowplay. It's beautiful, because you know they have nothing. They were bluffing against your weakness on the turn, and now they will try to buy the pot again.

Smooth calling a turn bluff raise makes you look unimproved with two draws on the board. Your basically not getting any more chips here unless you allow them to bluff you again by acting weak.
