Flush on river - what to do?
 

I know posting in the cutoff isn't the best idea, but I'm still lost here. Should I have bet the turn when those flop calls kind of seemed like both of them were on flush draws too? And how do I play that river with a mediocre flush?

a read on mp3 might be helpful, would he raise this river with something like Aces up?

There are only 2 flushes higher than yours, and way more that are lower.
