Been at the table for around 2 orbits. Villian hasn't really gotten out of line yet and has folded 7-8 hands in a row in one stretch. How is my line on turn and river? I'm not horribly worried about losing the amount on the table and feel I am ahead. Is a turn push in order? Not sure if I really like the river, but I felt it was a value bet and could've pushed him off if he had actually had the flush. I think he pushes back with the flush on the turn. Any comments/reasons to berate me?

btw...villian showed 10 9o...but generally should this line be + or -EV?

Generally, it's easier for people to respond if they don't know the results. And you should be the pot on the turn to protect against high clubs which are pretty likely to be out here with this many people seeing the flop. And I agree with you that once he flat calls on the turn, you should push on the river.

I can't say I like your line on the turn at all. What is the point of your tiny bet? Either check-call or pot it if you don't think there is a flush out there. Button's big raise is worrisome for having turned a flush. I would have given it up there since even if you are folding the best hand, you are only giving up a tiny pot. Also, don't min-reraise. If you think somebody is semibluffing you, make a bigger reraise (at least to $9) You don't have a club in your hand so you have to try to win it on the turn.
