Only reads I have is that table is fishy and I can't seem to win with anything /images/graemlins/grin.gif

Maybe not cap preflop? Maybe not cap flop?

You played this fine. As a rule, once you cap the flop with an overpair, you are generally committed to showdown for 2 more BBs. The pot is just too big at that point.

I hope to god you weren't even considering folding on the turn with the flush draw and 2 clean queen outs. But you're likely behind once you are bet into, so getting the CO to overcall is a good strategy.

Cap pre-flop is fine.
Cap flop is fine.
Calling turn 3rd nut flush draw is fine.
Calling river w/overpair in huge pot is fine.

No problems here.

This is fine. I put UTG on a likely flush draw when he 3-bets the flop, so the multiway cap is fine.

Of course the turn that completes both the flush and the OESD is extremely upsetting. But you have many outs so you cannot even consider folding. Then it must be worth another BB to showdown the overpair just in case something is up.
