You hurt yourself bad not raising the flop. Not only are you a dog to hands like KT or KQ, a raise might make those hands fold, which is really good for you. Beyond that, you are going to get a much better read on him. If he calls, and calls you on the turn, you either get a free river (or he checks and you bet ,depending how you feel about it, i don't really know on this hand) or he bets into you still, but either way you are goign to have a lot more information.

Bottom line is: if you raise the flop, you could easily make a hand with a 60% chance of winning or better fold, but you also get equity for when you make the flush, learn about his hand and you might have the best hand on the flop
