Carlos,

I'm not sure that I would have played it much differently, but if you felt the table was this tight...you might want to put in a half pot bet or find a better table.

[gergery]

I might have check-raised the turn. You'd look like a A2 who made a continuation bet and missed. Depends on opponents.

[emptyshell]

I'd bet something small enough on the turn that another low draw and maybe non-nut flushes would come along, like $2. If you make the low on the river, you pot it. It's a higher variance play since the river could pair the board, but life is short and you want to get rich sooner rather than later.

[emptyshell]

Also, you want to pot the flop. Some would pot it preflop but that's a style issue. There are winning players that limp all the time; they don't get the girls, but they still get the money.
