I wasn't sure how to bet here... do I want to milk him since I have the flush, push to take it there, or play it like I did?

You don't want to milk with a baby flush. You played it fine.

You can't risk 4 to a flush on the board so you played it right. Sorry about the result...the guy who limped with AA knowing it would at least be three way deserved to be cracked...
