Final Pot: 8.75 BB

I just wanted to go through my thought process here and see what everyone else thinks.

Preflop, I post with TT. A raise from a 2+2er from EP, so I just call. I figure I can fold when he bets and an overcard comes. I've played with BB before, who plays will call with just about anything in that spot, and he likes to lead off the betting on the flop often, so his flop bet means nothing to me. I also believe 2+2er knows this.

However, 2+2er's call means he may have missed the flop, so my hand has a pretty good chance of being good here. I figure if an overcard doesn't turn, I'll raise on the turn.

The turn spade puts three spades on board, and BB checks. I'm sure he's now done with the hand. However, 2+2er bets. My read here is that he did hit the flop, probably AQ or KQ, with no spades, and he wants to end the hand here. Because of the quickness of the bet, I'm guessing he would have raised BB if he'd bet. I now believe my flush draw is good plus a T will win it for me. I have 11 outs and getting 5.75:1 on my money. I call. BB folds as expected.

River gives me the flush. 2+2er bets. I consider a raise, but if my read is wrong and he has me beat, he'll three bet me, if he doesn't, he'll fold and I won't get any information on his hand, so I just call.

Normally, I'd 3 bet preflop with 1-s, but since I'd posted I felt a call was better. This was probably the first of SEVERAL mistakes in this hand. Please comment.
