Default Re: 10NL - Defending blinds with low PP... Too aggro?

I think you played this well, but there might be something to be said for slowing down on the turn since you're building a big pot without a big hand. I do agree that you're likely ahead of villains range and pre-flop and flop look standard given reads.

My hand is probably best but very vulnerable. If he has a flush (I don't think he does) I go broke, but I CAN'T give a free card here. Am I wrong?

Why can't you give a free card? First of all, since you've noted that he's ultra aggressive, you are probably not giving the best card, and anyway, his betting range is probably wider than his calling range. If you knew for sure you were ahead and that your opponent was unlikely to bet, then yes, giving up a free card is not so good, but it's not clear that both of those things are true here. Change the opponent read to passive, and I'd like a bet much more.
