he was on the flush draw i'd imagine.

2/3 pot it.

would that be a dangerous move betting into a possible boat?

Not sure. Depends a lot on the player.

But why in the world did you not raise that flop? You have the nuts and he could have a lot of good hands with outs.

raise the flop.

the table was loose and i thought a player behind me might raise which would allow me to put in a 3rd bet, probably fps
If i raise the flop he checks the turn and i probably dont win any more money plus i shut out people behind me on flop

What hand that you are afraid of on the river folds to your raise on the flop?

ahhh...that makes sense. I never thought about it like that.

Bet this river every time. At this level I wouldn't expect to see many river checkraises.

Raise the flop and value bet the river. Kids earlier had it right.
