    Play this hand like a winner. I raise the flop to at least $8-10 with 4 people behind me to act on this super coordinated board. QT is obviously pushing over here, but I don't fold this flop without a read.

    Tell the flush/straight drawer that he's not winning, and it's gonna cost him to see that next card.

    As played, ugh, I definitely slow down when the draw completes on the turn. Take the free card to your boat on the river. Way too many hands that limp preflop beat you on that river (any 7, 2 diamonds) so I find a fold to a push there...
    Hey knucklehead! Bonk!

    Why are you not raising this flop? If you get drawn out on you have only yourself to blame. Turn is bad. Check behind and hope to fill up, otherwise look to showdown cheap.

    If you never slowplayed a set you would make more money that if you slowplayed too much.

    Do not, do not, do not do not let this get to the turn if you can do anything about it.

    basically sums up my thoughts pretty well

    to be honest, i was on the phone and by the time i got back to the hand i was out of time. im aware slow playing the set with both those draws is a terrible play. should have mentioned that in the beginning.
