.01/.02 NL Turned Flush
 

Villain is fairly loose aggressive. Is this pretty standard or lead turn?

Sorry, I'm totally new to NL cash.

Yes, lead the turn for about .40 and try to get it all-in.

Bet close to pot on turn and shove river. You don't want to check here when you have a deeper stack, fortunately you got away with it because were short. Also, I'd suggest buying in for the full $5 if you have ~$150 br. These players at 2nl stack off so light and make the most ridiculous allin bluffs that all you need to do is play your hands for value and will win easily.

Hmmmm...I'm guessing you checked the turn because you wanted to disguise the strength of your hand by playing tricky. That's totally unneccessary at NL2 and probably all the way up to NL25 (in which case, playing tricky will only be good if you have an aggressive opponent). Just keep betting for value as the loose players at your level will pay you off.

IMO, most villains will not give you credit for the flush anyway and may try to bluff all-in.

Don´t try to be tricky. In general it won´t get you more action, it will just ensure that the pots you win are smaller and you give free cards to any number of hands to beat you. The only reason to check the turn here is with a read like: "villain probably has very little, no pair or no draw most of the time and he will fold those if I bet, but if I check he will openshove the river with his entire range".

You want to get his entire stack in there and it is harder to do that by checking.

Also by constantly hammering 2nl players with bets they get very frustrated and start making large flop shoves over cbets with no hand. Over and over. Stay aggressive and get the table tilting, instaprofit.

Absolutely. Its not the most fun way to play poker but at this level its just value-bet 99% bluff almost never. They are looking at their cards and the board. If they do try and put you an a hand they just pick one they can beat and pay you off.
