I don't ever post hands ...A bad habit I am trying to chnge. Normally I have a plan, even if it's a bad one. As the river and turn fell, I had nothing. I actually had tears as I made this crying call, was I being too sensitive?

I think I'm betting the turn there, I don't see any reason to give them credit for a Q. MP3 played this like a flush draw.

I think you can safely fold the way bottom end to a raise here, but at the same time you can't give the flush draw a free card.

Check-raising the flop might have helped--but a four flush is usually going to stay in no matter what.

I think I check raise this flop. Given that you led out I think you have to bet this turn. You still beat most hands here(sets, flush dras TPTK hands). I think this is an easy bet and if you are raised I think you call down if it is heads up or lay it down if it is still multi way.
