Raising Flop Pros: i.Getting him to fold AK,AQ,KQ, any hand that can improve when we station down. This kinda goes along w/ the first part . but when we raise we get to use Fold equity, where when we call down we're slaves to equity.
ii. raising helps get more money in the pot, thereby making the spr smaller and more suited to this situation

Cons: we then run the risk of being raised , in which case we aren't in very good shape vs. that range.

Raising the turn: Where OTF he may have folded hands we already beat, Now that the flush came there is a small chance we can get him to fold some better hands too.
