Tough decision - in a bad spot because of my own bad play...
1/2 NL, rowdy table. Dealt KJc in BB. Comes to me with 2xbb raise by UTG and two callers. I call for another $2 and we have four players. Flop comes TsQc3h. I check, bet is $4 and everyone calls, $25 in the pot. Turn is As. With nut straight and worried about the flush draw , I overbet the pot ($30) and get two callers (now $115 in pot). River is another frickin spade.
Other info:
UTG +1 with a remaining stack of about $90. Weak player, probably thinks I’m bluffing the straight on the turn. I'm thinking she's calling with mid pair and just made two pair with the A. (AT?)
CO with stack of $290. Pretty good player. Could have anything.
My stack is about $250.
How do you play now?

i'm wondering if the CO hit a hand, AND had a flush draw. if he's a decent player, i don't know if he would had called your overbet on the turn with just a flush draw (although, if he's got the ace...).
i would probably push it. your check says "weak" or "trap", and his all-in says he doesn't want to be called. he's either got a low flush, or it's a blantant pot-buy attempt with top pair, and maybe a busted draw.
yeah, his bet is saying "please don't call me" - it's push time.
am i even close?

Call. He'll probably push with more hands here than he would call with. Reverse Gap Theory.

My thoughts exactly.
I call.
He shows Qs9s, for the flush. He had second pair, a flush draw, so his call of my turn bet wasn't that out there-Iguess.
I'd feel better about it if I had put him all-in on the turn, even if he calls and catches.
