 On the flop, yes. Often enough probably. On the turn, probably not. River? You're done...but the money is already in so we don't worry about that.

You could just call his flop RR and fold this turn, but I probably would have gotten it in like you did.

 this is fine, let's not sweat over pots against 38bb stacks where we have an overpair.

sizing is good PF and flop

 I'd say thats a pretty horrible flop for you and best hands he has for you are AJ+ KJ KQ (with only one spade) and QQ with most of the rest of his range ending up leaving you in trouble.

 If he's semi-bluffing but never bluffing, this is why I say we don't worry about these decisions against 38bb stacks where we've already invested 14bbs
