I'm a NL player trying to transition back to limit, so I'm not the best source of info for this situation, but I'll do my best.

The preflop play is standard, and I like it.

I absolutely adore your flop raise, though it is also standard

The turn... ugggggh the turn. I don't like your turn play. Even at this level (it's no .50/1, but it's even less so a 10/20,) there will probably be a caller with bottom pair. When the board pairs low and there are 4 people in the pot, I give the benefit of the doubt and fold with an overpair, unless there's an obscene amount of money in the pot. With the 3-bet, there's NO WAY I'm calling. 67 (for the straight) is an often played hand, 2 spades (for the flush,) though drawing, will screw up your hand 1/5th of the time. Additionally, there is always an outside chance of a set (which at this point is a full or quad) Finally, TT-AA could be out there as well. My turn logic would've hovered between folding or coldcalling the bet... this might be the incorrect logic, but I'm a more cautious player who has seen too many med. pocket pairs busted by small sets, etc.

I wouldn't have made it to the river, but if I did, I think it's a coinflip over call or fold. Either one seems to have about the same EV, but I'd lean toward folding.

Hope this helps.
