Is there a better way to have played this? I would've gotten it in on the flop, but with the flop flat call and a blank turn, I was at a loss of what to do

Fold pf imo.

As played I think you folded correctly. Although, even if I was in the hand, I doubt I'm making it past the flop.

 pflop is fine imo.

I think not raising the turn is okay, even though he is essentially checking when he mindonks out like that. I would probably raise simply b/c of how weak that turn donkbet is. But this is okay.

I don't know if the PF is such a good idea. If it was up to you to open it's not bad.

As for the actual play I would have put him on a J as well because when the K came up it looked like a scare card.

When the 6 came up, I think he thought he had you beat though so...it's a personal choice here.

I kind of like this hand to analyze though.

I'd look him up because he could have a flush draw at least 1/4 of the time
