meh...There's plenty on this board that crushes you, so it really depends on how nitty you want to be.

Any stats on the villan's AF?

You're left with 2.45 behind after the turn bet. Either shove or fold.

I think I am shoving the turn here, simply put a full pot bet only leaves you with about $1 behind, might as well get it all in now. Half pot bet on the turn is weak and leaves you in this situation.
As played I shove over and reload.

I think the bet after the turn is suspicious because the other two guys called the big raise after the flop. Checking after the turn would have been more conservative since you also have a nut flush draw.

In the final situation, I am a little bit closer to folding because you have been betting crazy nonstop preflop, after the flop and the turn. The guy possible thinks (knows) you have AQ or AK something and he wants you to call. Folding is not too bad in this situation because you will still have some chips to beat this guy later.

Also your check after the river is an indication of a weakness unless you checkraise the guy but you dont have enough chips to do so unless you want to commit yourself all in. I would have folded this hand.

I dont like the turn bet. Against 1 villain bet/fold but here Id be very surprised if we were ahead on the turn. C/F unless you get proper odds for FD, prob 7 outs here. (I havent looked at the pot/stacks btw)

OC I could be wrong, it wouldnt be the 1st time
