I wouldn't risk this drawy flop getting check behind and thus I'll lead here always (unless I know one of them will stab regardless of their hand) Also, leading looks weaker then c/r.

As played, I like to bet this turn a lot of the times. Though it will suck to get raised, his range is wider the just flush.

As played, I bet 1/3-1/3 on the river and fold to a raise.

Do you think betting 1/3 with induce a check raise with how weak the bet is? I hate these spots, but how played I think I would of shiped it in on the flop
