Are there any benefits of slow playing? Many players do it to keep other players in the pot, when they have what they think is a winning hand and to increase the size of the pot.
This can work for you or against you. Post flop there are now three card which could improve and their hands. If there are checks all round the turn and river gives the remaining players more chances to improve. You could also argue that the two additional cards could improve your own hand. Pot odds can be useful here. The only way I would slow play was if I had the nuts after the flop
