    Default Reasonable slowplay?

    Blinds 25/50, I'm on the button with A K.

    Pre-flop: 3 limpers, I raise to 250, loose player in MP calls.

    Flop: K Q 5. Check, check.

    My thought at the time was to get him to bluff at the turn. I'm currently second-guessing it.

    What gabe said, why check? You don't want to give your opp free cards to beat you. TPTK and the nut flush draw aren't the nuts by any means.

    if a third flush comes up on the turn, do you think your opponent is more likely to call you now having seen u check the flop?

    can't slow play this... make a bet that looks like your betting a draw and if you get resistance feint an all in semi bluff

    Fish like to call. Give them every opportunity.
