Pushing table around, no one knows WTF to expect from me except big bets and raises, consequently I'm not expecting r/r's. Granted, I hit my hand, and so did he which I deduced from his turn raise smooth call.

Thoughts on my play OOP here?

If this is the case, I hate the turn minraise. Why not stick with your image and raise more? Lucky for you villian had the K-high flush and it didn't matter what you did, but if he has a more marginal hand like a set, then he might be more tempted to look you up if you raise more on the turn. In a lot of ways a minraise like yours is a lot scarier than a nice $10 reraise.

I'd bump it up to $3.Build the pot and maybe buy the free turn card.If villain reraises then just call.

You need to bump this up more.Although you have the nut flush you can't allow any set to draw to their boat with reasonable odds.Make this more like $7.50 to 8.25 to go($9 may chase out too many hands that would prefer to see a river that they would likely not improve to beat you on).Pushing the turn is too aggressive of course but I think a heathier raise is ok.

River is sweet money.

Yeah that is true.I guess your read on the opponent would def have to be good to make a CR on the flop.....works better on the scared tight passives usually.
