Put to the test on the river

calls, and wonders if he played the turn correctly.

Hmmm, so you're wondering if it's better to check it through on the turn and then call any potential river bet? I honestly had not considered that option. When the flush card hit on the turn and he checked it to me, I figured I'm most likely either 1) quartering another A2 or 2) chopping against a flush. In the unlikely scenerio that he has an A2 with diamonds, well I'll have to take my lumps.

With 1 and 2 being the most likely scenerios, I decided I wanted to squeeze him as much as possible. If I'm quartering him, I want as much of his chips in the pot as possible. If he has anything other than the nut-flush, I'm hoping my bet will squeeze him enough to fold so I can hog the whole pot.
