I really need a line check cuz I felt like a fish this entire hand.

It seems like a should take the free card on the flop since my draw isn't that great with those clubs out there.

When I make the nuts on the turn, I don't really know what to do. If I'm facing a bet when I have the nut straight but a flush draw is out there, I never raise because I'm afraid of getting freerolled by the same straight with a redraw to the flush. Is this okay or am I losing value? And in this case, is my straight redraw worth anything with the flush draw out there?

It's a safe river and he bets again, so obv I should raise. I feel like I'm chopping the pot a lot of the time, but in case I'm not, how much should my raise be? $11-$12?

any reads?
flop check behind seems good.
vs an unknown this is a pretty easy turn raise. He's bet-calling A4, flush draws, sets, etc. As played just raise river pot.

raise turn! I want a read to worry about getting free rolled. If he checked a set on this board that looks like an OK card. Also this board is different from say AKQ3 where I would worry a lot more with bare straight.

OTR go biggish, looks like you missed

I would also just bet the flop and continue vs 1 player, you're only 65/35 dog to AA with nut clubs. If two people call/raise you can give up.

what kind of read?

I know I'm not valuing my hands properly since trying to play 6 max and I guess it'll just take some time before I figure it out.

I never assume villain has the same straight if it requires a one gapper that I have. (blockers/randomness/?). At 25PLO I rarely make a play based off of being freerolled because there aren't many villains that understand what's going on.

You'll see the worse straight or something else like 2 pair more often if you raise the turn, because if anything it looks like a super donkey AAxx line.
