    I would have bet around 1000 on the turn.
    I think the allin is a little unnecessary.

    check the flop. so you can chek raise. lead out and bet pot on turn. i dont mind your all in here. they have nothing and only a flush will save them. not worth "milking" here.

    I think I bet more like 3/4 pot on the flop, that way if a nonspade falls on the turn at least you are winning a decent sized pot with your all-in. It also defines other people hands a little better.
    I mind the all-in more because it is a relatively baby pot at the time you pushed, as opposed to just the idea that it is an overbet.

    Make around a half-pot sized bet or so. You want to make a bet large enough to take away pot odds for a flush draw to call, but small enough that they may make the incorrect decision and call you anyway.
    I'm CDO. It's like OCD, but everying is in order just like it should be.

    No gder, its a not donk move, but it ain't the smartest, just because with this board we can't gurantee somebody will bet, unless you got some Hx on some of them. I don't want to risk giving a free card here.....

    You need to bet somewhere around 2/3-3/4 pot each street.... they will chase regardless, but you do want some action from flopping the nuts.....
    Marm is back, maybe. Been off for 3 years. Rusty as Hell.

    high percentage that this flop will be checked. i will take the chance that somone will bet it. personally i would'nt do it. while the hand is vulnerable, only 9 cards will bother me on the turn. maybe 11. i personally would bet pot.
