Of course I will have to raise any bet on the turn unless K or Q comes. This is the last bit of value I can get out of a flush draw, if he has a set wtf can I do? Just stack off I guess. I' m miles ahead of his range.
Well, if you think villain is limping hands like Axs and suited connectors, and you think villain would lead the flop with a bare flush draw, then it's okay to raise. It heavily depends on what villain will limp/call with from EP, and you're really the only person who can answer that question.
In general, however, if you knew 100% that you were ahead with TPTK vs a flush draw and villain bets into you, then you should raise. You want these guys to be calling you down when you're ahead because that's how you make money in poker.
