What do you put the other 2 on? What is your play on this hand?

More confused about your fold than what the other two had. At least one of them, prolly button, has a T, and possibly both do. If SB doesn't have a T then he has 2pr or Ax. Please explain your fold to me. I am very confused (although it is late and I've been drinking...)

I put button on a higher flush, I was multi so didn't see the one card straight.

Bet the flop for value and to improve the chance of your flush holding up if it hits on the turn and is best then.
I dont understand your turn coldcall...

How about the T? If I was the button, and I had a T, I'd play it the same way on the turn. I think his river raise is over aggressive (so maybe you can fold), but you should have 3-bet the turn.

Turn cold call was because I thought I was maybe the only one with the flush. When the button reraised again on the river I put him on a flush and well a higher one than mine. That's why I didn't want to call 2 cold again. Are you saying I should have folded on the turn?

What if I bet flop, bet turn, got raised, then reraised? Which seems likely given the action.

I would probably have 3bet the turn.

I put UTG+1 on either a bigger flush, an ace and a face card, or a 10. Maybe slowplayed AT. Button's got a 10 or a flush.

I check-raise the turn. I think if you're going to bother drawing at these baby flushes, you have to push them a little. If it's capped you can back off.

Tough spot to be in, but I think the high, coordinated board actually makes it more likely that you're being raised by a worse hand here. Straights and two pair
will raise and re-raise on this turn, at least in many cases.
