 yikes. Curious to hear the CG experts chime in, I prolly would have given away my stack just like you did. I guess you could argue opp wont call on the turn without a better flush... tough one. Maybe just try to check it down?

 you couldn't do shit, in a love game maybe a read but you have got to bet that hand. idk maybe after he called you on the flop you could've figured he was on a draw, even though he kinda wasn't. you're kinda unlucky he didn't reraise you pre flop.

Sorry but I think you misplayed it.

He calls your 5x PFR. What do you expect him to have? He's
got an A in there or a K or maybe both.

He calls your 10x flop bet. With that board, you know he's got
a big spade. He knows your on the flush draw because of your
PFR (he put you on a big pair) so he calls, hoping you don't have
As.

The all-in on the turn wasn't at all necessary. The only hand that
would call is the nut flush or close to it. If he didn't have the spade
he would have folded anyway. In cases where the information is
on the board, don't bet to push people off. Bet for value or check
and trap their bluff.

Would you call that bet if you had Js or Ts? Then why expect him
to call it unless he's got you?

On the turn, you're essentially in a position where you either have the hand won or your opponent does. That being said, you should only be betting for one of two purposes, to bluff out a better hand or get a call from a worse hand. Going all-in really doesn't achieve either, since he obviously isn't going to call with a jack high flush or worse, and he's going to call with a king high flush or better. I would either check-call or check-fold, depending upon the size of his bets relative to the pot size, and my assessment of how capable my opponent is of bluffing or overvaluing a hand in this situation.

you were up against a misplayed KK, keep a note that he doesnt play big pairs aggressively and move on.
