Looks like you played it fine. Personally I would have bet on the flop to either eliminate people and/or build the pot. With no one re-raising you, you have to think your flush is good. Looks like you're up against a couple calling stations and if they beat you, then they really don't know what they're doing. Only hands that beat you are a full house or Ace high flush and 99% of people would be raising you with one of those hands.

Yeah, I took the hand, but I was wondering if I should have tried to build the pot. It looks easy to do now, but I didn't want to miss the flush. One guy had trip 6's (the boat made me nervouse too) and the other just had a jack. I think if I bet the flop he probably wouldn't have called it down. Agree?

Aye, I would bet that flop every time, but other than that it looks fine.

I would NOT have raised preflop w/ K10, average hand at best, worth a flop at times, but not a raise.

Given the flop-4 to the flush w/ 2 overcards in your hand, 66 isnt great, but not many will play a 6, I bet out from here.

I'd bet the flop from LP. The possibility that you're drawing dead is scary, but unless I'm up against a group that likes to check-raise, I bet. You really shouldn't have trouble getting a value from it, considering the size of the pot and much of the table will be chasing uppers.
