No reads, I was at the table for maybe 10 hands so far. I think I should have either folded the turn or pushed there. do you slowplay this flop like I did? is it a flush over flush?

I'd lead out or check-raise the flop, leaning more towards leading out. On the turn you should fold. All you can beat is a seriously overplayed smaller flush.

I don't necessarily agree with this. From villian's perspective, why does he need a flush to raise the turn like this? Smackin calls $10 on the flop, then bets out 1/3 pot on the turn. All it takes is an aggro villian to make a move here, figuring there's a good chance the original raiser will fold to a squeeze and that smackin needs at least a flush to call here.

Without a read I don't think folding the turn is a good idea. I would just call the raise and hope my position can buy me a cheap showdown, otherwise bet if checked to. As played I think you have to fold that river.

But like dsaxton said I think you should've lead out or CR'ed the flop to start building the pot early.

you have a really strong but yet pretty vulnerable hand. I either CR or lead-out, depending on how I feel about the villains. If I lead out I am looking to go for a 3-bet committing them i.e. hero raise 8 villain raise to 20 1 fold hero raise to 50-60. Problem here is naturally that you are forced to go Ai on turn no matter what comes. or could anybody find a fold if Qs or 8 or T comes on turn? I cant.
