For the longest time there have been ppl for and against slowplaying and this has been debated on a number of occasions and I have come to the conclusion that both sides of the argument are right.
I look at it this way, if you are an aggressive player, then a slowplay won't work too well for you because any check raise will set off the red light for anymore action, so a c-bet will be in order when you are in a position to slowplay and will likely be called on a non-threatening board when you flop a set or better.
On the other hand, if you are the passive type who just calls alot and doesn't raise or c-bet, then a slowplayed set or better is advantageous to the passive type.
