Preflop is marginal. You are rooting for playing a non-nut-flush-draw oop against many opponents. But the odds of 11:1 are nice.

Lead the flop. You don't want to build a big pot by getting more money in with a c/r with TP3K, flushdraw on the board and 4 opponents in the hand.

Bet like $2.5 - 3 on the river. That has more chances to get called than an overbet.

preflop: meh, i complete this is I have nothing interesting going on at other tables.

flop: I usually lead pretty strong here, I am oop with a marginal hand so I am hoping to take the pot down or at least get heads up with a draw that overpaid. This is a drawy board, too drawy to price out the combos so I might consider c/c and let this one turn into a checking festival. Your c/r seems odd since you don't really want to build a big pot at this point since there is a decent chance you are behind or facing a strong draw, did you think that a 25 raise would push him off his hand?

Turn: now you are glad you got the pot size up. Bet 3/4 pot or more for value. Also you are oop and still have lots of draws to fear so you don't mind taking this down here.

River: it is just a matter of what villain will go for, looks like he missed his draws but I don't have a problem with the big overbet now and again since villains at this level sometimes think that it is a bluff with a missed draw of your own. Usually I would bet a little less than pot. If villain is tight or I was really sure that his hand was weak I might bet 1/2 pot. It just depends and you do want to change it up randomly in this spot.

pf is good. Flop, just call. I wouldnt lead into 4 players here, but I wouldnt want to build a pot with your hand. Turn is fine. River is fine. You're only getting action from a set/flush now and if hes calling $2.5 hes calling $5
