You played this way too passively. Try to get it all-in on the flop, this is a monster for you.

yeah 3 bet flop or c/r AI on the turn IMO you have a ton of outs and you dont want to loose action if your flush comes in on the turn or river.

As above, RERAISE that flop and either get it all in there or at least on the turn. Check/call check/call is waaay too passive.

The line you took isn't bad imo. If you actually get it all in with pair + draw in a limped pot, you will often be taking much the worst of it (eg if they have a set your two pair/trips outs are no good), and your fold equity after someone raises you in a limped pot is often not that great either. Plus you actually have a hand with some showdown value ui.

A shove here is still good, but I'm just saying it's not as clear cut as the first three posters are making out.
