What is your reasoning? He capped the flop, and on the turn the flush draw/4 to a straight came up.
I am not convinced that my play was the correct one, but I am not convinced that the raise is either.

Let alone I wouldn't put it pass him to have a small to larger PP, more likely small.

3betting that flop is terrible.

Betting the flop is marginal -- I would check and see what happens.

I don't see how you could have raised the turn when no one bet.

So the A/images/graemlins/heart.gif gives you two pair but four to a straight and three to a flush. I bet and fold to a raise, figuring villain has a set.

Where you intending a check-raise?

I would bet the turn every time. You aren't going to drive out a flush draw, but you are betting for value when villan is chasing the wheel straight and hits his Ace on the turn.

Should I have tried to c/r this flop? What would have been a better line? I was kind of testing the waters with the 3-bet, I was confused as could be on the turn, I wasn't really sure what I was going to do, I was very tempted to just call down, but also kind of wanted to fold and I was thinking about throwing a bet/f out there. There is a reason why I posted this!

Agreed. Vulnerable pair, with straight and flush draws on the board. Small pot.

Having said that, I would bet the turn.
