Yes, he disguised his small pr with a PFR. The only thing that
could have helped you here is a read on the plr.

You didn't use your position to your advantage. In this hand
you need to get a better read. Your flop bet call seemed like
you were on a drawing hand. Here you need to raise. I would
have taken it to $10. A call would indicate he's got something
strong. I then check and fold on the turn bet.

Being aggressive (by raising or folding) is usually better than being
passive (by calling) when you don't have information.

you should have raised more on the flop and then slowed down w/ 2 callers, and then when u called the next one and a 3rd person called again, you have to know one or both of them have you beat, and maybe one of them was on a draw. i dont really understand what you were thinking when you raised on the river, especially after the flush hit, you should have check folded definitely.

Couldn't have said it better myself. Passive slow players deny themselves any chance at a good read.

It's not what's inside that counts. Have you seen what's inside?
Internal organs. And they're getting uglier by the minute.

Reraise preflop and raise on the flop. Consider folding if one or more players show a lot of strength after the flop.
