I thought it was kinda obvious that I had a flush if I made a bet on the river, so I made it cheap for him to call.
Is this good thinking or should I just bet 1/2 pot?

Thoughts on flop and turn are also welcome.

I like it. May even induce a bluff.

I raise a little more on the flop to like 16.
Turn is fine.
Definitely bet more here, 20 is probably good. It's not really obvious that you have a flush, you could easily have Ax type hands.

i'd bet the turn. on the river, if he has anything he'll probably call, but if you play against him often (or anybody else at the table), he may remember that, and you don't want the size of your bets giving away your hands in the future. so if you think anyone at the table is paying attention, you may want to bet bigger to protect your bluffs in the future.

To fold out Ax? I just don't see many better hands we're folding with a turn bet.

not to fold out hands, to get more money in the middle with our hand (OESD + FD + Pair). it's going to be hard to get paid on the river when our hand hits.

Played it fine, IMO.

I would probably have bet a bit more on river though. If hes calling $11, he'll call $15-16.
