Pre flop- i would 3-bet
Flop - bet
Turn - check if lots of people call the flop bet. If only one or two players call you may want to bet again if you feel a turn bet may take down the pot.

River - i would 3-bet.

That's curious, why would you 3-bet preflop? There's so many players in and you are OOP for the rest of the hand.

Yeah I think that a preflop 3-bet is not good here but I would definitely lead this flop.

I was thinking of leading the flop because that's what I normally would do but I wanted to mix things up a bit this hand. I think leading this flop into so many players usually slows your action if you are to hit your flush.

Since when is 10/20 small stakes?

I dont get your play here. You check on the flop and miss a bunch of value. THen, when the turn card hurts your hand and everyone is still in, you bet. then when you hit your money card you wonder what to do when you get raised by a straight. I would call pf, bet out on the flop, check the turn, and 3 bet/call the river.

I think a preflop call is correct. 3 betting sounds overaggressive to me. On the flop I think betting out might be a try. You put some pressure on the 2 EP limpers and if they fold and MP raises, you might get it heads up which increases the chance of your overcard outs, if they hit, being good. If you don't get it heads up you still have the flush draw going for you so pumping the pot is good. On the river I think I just call. You didn't give a read on the EP player so for all I know he might be loose enough to have played Ax diamonds and there's enough money in the pot as is. Further, the board is paired so there's a small chance a FH is out there against you too.
