As for the flop my question is why bet here - you are unlikely to pick up the pot here and if you can't do that you probably want to keep people into to pay you off if you make your draw. I would just check and call here rather than lead out.

Yes, I think you are right I should not have bet out on the flop. With three opponents and two high cards it's unlikely they will all fold. If I had just two opponents or if the 9 of spades was replaced with something like 2 of spades, would a bet on the flop be more reasonable?

Slightly, I think I only bet here if I'm very sure I'll pick up the pot - like maybe if it's only against the BB and he has just checked so far. I do not want to play these cards heads up since with so few players I will not make enough money when my draw comes in to make up for the times it doesn't.

The SB complete is fine. I like to do this to mix up my hands a little bit with some crappy suited hands. (I don't do this in 6-max much since high card strength is emphasized more.)

I think it's better to check/call the flop. Perhaps you'll get a free card to hit your flush. You may also improve to a pair and try to pick up the pot if no one shows interest.

As for the river, I'd fold. CO has shown plenty of strength after the flop came down, he probably hit something. Even a pair of 5's is better than your hand and the pot isn't gigantic to justify a crying call...
