I dont think its a bluff I think he either hit is flush or str8 draw.

With so many people seeing the flop and a very coordinated board you want to bet more on both the flop and the turn.
Betting 60% of the pot with 4 people to act behind you is asking for trouble, when he called you let him see the river pretty cheap, he had to call 1.25 into a 4.00 pot, he does not have pot odds but he does have implied odds to chase

Thanks for your comments.

At the time I thought it was a made flush or he had a T with a better kicker either way I think I was beat and I still do but its good to get other peoples opinions.

Having looked at it I think youi are right TLR that I should have bet more . I guess I was a bit tired of picking up small pots and I thought as long as I am pricing them out of chasing their draws then it will be +ev in the long run. Looking at it now, with 4 other players to the flop at least a $1 bet on flop was needed and I definately should have bet at least $2 on the turn.

Anyway, thanks for your comments and anymore comments on the hand or my thinking patterns would be very welcome.

Thats a leak right there, most of the times you win small pots, occesonially you will win big pots with sets, flushes and boats when your opponent has a nice piece of the flop as well

In this hand pot the flop and then pot the turn
