Re: playing a flush draw from EP
 
This is tough. I like leading the flop, and I like the bet size. With a pair and the nut flush draw, there's no way you're getting away from this. I like check calling the turn as well, rather than leading and having to let it go to a raise. Keeping the pot small until you hit is a good strategy. I like the way you played it.
