    I might've not raised the turn....with my luck he would've drawn his flush there.

    I can agree with either analysis, however with the raise on the turn you are representing the nut flush, and when he only calls your raise, then you know he doesn't have it so you have learned something a call wouldn't have gotten you. If he had the nut flush there he is going to reraise you. If he reraises there I let the hand go though, cuz I'm beat. Nice hand.

    I like it... you really can't fear anything but paranoia. If he hit a set or funky two pair, you gotta make him tell you he's got it. And he's not telling me that with his action. With the action as it stands, betting as you did is +EV.

    I don't think he's got a flush draw. If I was him, I would have 3 bet the flop to try and get a free card. Of course, most players aren't as psychotic as I am. But if they are the more passive end of the poker spectrum, most flush draws aren't going to bet into a PF raiser since they fear a reraise. I think the guy got a weak piece of this flop and figured he could knock you off your unpaired overs. Then he realized you had better and got out.
