I think that I might fold a little too much ?
Like in this hand - I think that folding preflop or calling bets wouldve been a better choice. I wouldve won this hand with a pair of J...
but isn't it right to suspect a overpair [or flush in this case] when people start raising ?

so - did I play this right?

I don't play that kind of hands much.
The pot is small and there is agood chance you are beaten.
I often play unsure hands for big pots, but I would have folded that on the flop without any remorse

I bet/raise this hand on the flop. You probably have the best hand and are likely to get payed off by 2-3 other people chasing the flush. With this in mind though, you do have to fold if the 4-flush does hit on the turn or river. I don't think folding on the flop is really too bad of a play though as a lot of scare cards could hit on the turn or river...any diamond beats you and an Ace or King likely does(possibly even a ten to give somebody with JT, 2 pair).

No, you didn't fold right! + what trik said. Raising preflop might chase the KQ away, giving your hand more strenght.

I would raise pre-flop and bet or check-raise the flop.

With the check-raise you will find out where you are at and hopefully chase out the opponents with overcards. Anyone who remains aggressive to your check-raise probably has the flush.
