I wouldn't consider this to be a strong draw. You cannot assume that your straight outs are clean, since you are drawing to the idiot-end of the straight. I play it like I have only the nut flush draw. If the flop was 3c-4c-5s, now that's a totally different story, and I play it a lot more aggressively.

 This looks pretty standard to me. I might have raised preflop, but other than that...

However, this hand was tragic for you because you missed out on 22bb because you weren't bought in for full. I constantly stay bought in full when I play. Every five minutes when I first start, I go through and rebuy all my tables back to 100bb.

I play it the same, unraised pot and no real compelling reason to 3-bet this guy. Turn call is a little loose.

Assuming 9 outs, he only needs a 5$ river bet to make it EV=0. An Ace or 7 could be outs too.. I'd call this all the time, is that a leak?
