This is going to look like bad play but the reason I did what I did is because this guy is a donk maniac that plays the most awful hands. He played almost all his hands and managed to suck out and win some.

However, the turn spot was tricky.. I'm thinking in most situations this is an automatic fold, correct? But then I was thinking, if a decent player hit the flush on the turn, wouldn't they check it? His turn bet was weak to me which was a give away that he didn't hit his flush, although I'm sure good players at higher stakes might bet like this to disguise it, however at 5NL that rarely happens.

I don't know man. Loose aggros at these levels seem to play any two suited cards but they also tend to slowdown when they actually do hit a big hand. I've noticed this time and time again. Since villain is a maniac, I ship it every time unless I've picked up on contrasting betting patterns.

Villain probably has a small pp and donked bet the flop. If that's what he had, calling the flop raise was awful on his part. So I can see where you're conflicted with the 3rd club on the turn after he called your flop raise.

Damn, you edited the post. At least I was spot on with what he had. If you're going to post results, at least wait until a few people reply so they can give their thoughts objectively.

 Fwiw, that's a set of jacks. Trips != set.
