in theory betting along the way will make you more money. He will pay to chase and when he doesnt hit, you have made a little doe. However, if you slow play till the river, if he didnt hit he is going to fold and you wont make anything. Of course, there is the possibility he will stab and you can make money that way too. Nevertheless, slow playing isnt the only way to make money...
But being straightflushed does suck.
