TPGK on draw heavy board

CO is fairly LAGGY pre and post flop. Not much of a read on BB. Should I have called down? Raised the turn?

Did I get pushed off my hand?

To start with, I am very very bad and only play 0.50/1.00, my advice is not worth much.

I think that you are ok up to the Turn, I 'may' have capped the flop depending on the feel for the game, especially if I have any indication that it would get the BB to fold.

On the Turn this is a tough one. I am thinking that BB is not on a flush as they would not want to keep pumping the pot, and based on the flop betting there is a good chance that it gets raised. So I am putting the BB on trips, or a slowplayed big hand.

Further, given that you don't know what action you are going to get after your turn call (based on the flop action, this could lead to a raising war between the other two players), I am not inclined to call.

I could see a raise here, to try and get CO to fold, but I would more seriously consider a fold.

The way it worked out, staying in was a good call, but if there was additional betting on either the Turn or River, I don't think it would have been the right call.

Therefore, I am leaning toward folding on the turn.

reraise the turn to get rid of the button. If BB reraises I think its safe to fold, if BB calls then you'll probably get a free showdown.

Not sure if this is right, but that flop is ridiculously coordinated, I might consider calling the flop donk and raising a safe turn.

raising makes it incorrect for gutshots and bottom pair to call, I think that's very important.

raising the flop I take it?
