Stats
MP is unknown, BB is 37/27/7, 96 hands.

Preflop
Standard call. Stacks are deep and it's multiway, which is beneficial for speculative hands. I close the action.

Flop
On the flop I can either call or raise. I decided to raise to utilize fold equity. I could get him to fold QQ, AQ, ATs. I think I made it a bit too big, because I only had a half pot bet left on the turn. Maybe $13 would have been better, so that Villain might fold to a shove on the turn (2/3 pot).

Turn
Again, I thought I had some fold equity that I wanted to utilize. Am I wrong here? Did I have no fold equity? When a player calls my raise on the flop, do you think he ever folds to a 1/2 pot bet on the turn?

Alternative line
Is calling the flop most profitable? The upside of calling is that the BB might call too and I can get paid off by more players if I hit my flush. The downside of calling is that I don't get MP to fold several stronger hands (AQ, QQ, ATs).

If I do call the flop, should I call the turn as well, or raise the turn?
