Since you are 200BB deep, a call is probably fine.

I like just calling the turn since there are a lot of monsters in MP's range. On that board I would not expect to get very many folds.

as played, you gotta call. hope you stacked him.

You raise if you think you have good fold equity i.e when they are weak
you call when you have good implied odds i.e. when they are strong.

So are they strong or weak here? he did not c bet but bets the turn. So looks like queen helped him in some way.

His turn sizing is relatively large so hands like AQ,QJ are less likely as they will generally bet smaller size(cause they are betting for thin value). That leaves QQ, TJ, (may be KQ but less likely cause no c bet)

So they look strong and we call with good implied odds imo

Not really the kind of hand I want to raise on the turn. I think I just call the turn bet.

I've been reading The Grinder's Manual and it had a spot kind of similar to this where we have a good but not great draw on the turn and are wondering whether to semibluff with it. The author says we want to pick hands that we can easily fold to a 3-bet or easily call to a 3-bet -- if 3-betting puts us in a weird spot where we're not feeling that great about our choice, then we should probably call instead.

So to that end, I would prefer to raise draws like AcJc, AcTc, 8c7c, etc. where I know I can snap call a 3-bet.

I'm not sure if I do raise/fold any flush draws on this board. All of our flush draws either have a gutshot or are open-ended or are things like 9c8c where we don't really want to semi-bluff with some semblance of SDV.
