getting almost 3:1, i really don't understand folding this

I would bet the flop. If he raises i probably call and check/fold the turn

As played i would probably check/fold the turn, depending on villian's bet size. I dont really want to commit a decent amount of money to an unraised pot with the non nut flush draw on an already paired board.

River i think is okay. Check/call is also okay.

The vilain is not a donk and what hands can I call that I beat ? Its a pretty typical player who would raise with AJo préflop.

Why the turn bet?

Bet the flop, call the river. More lieky to be a 4 then anything else

Def pot the flop, and either half pot block bet the turn or just c/f whichever you think will be more profitable against this particular villain.

A 4 ? I don't think so, the big rier raise show more strength than that I find.

What is a def pot ?

Call. There are smaller flushes with suited connectors. For example, JTs.

PF: Fine.
Flop: Bet. Your call is fine.
Turn: SPEW! What the hell are you betting with? NOTHING?! The call is tolerable, but only because of villain's bet sizing.
River: Call. Lower flushes, AJ, overpair, straight.

I sort of like c/c the river.

I agree with your pf and river advice. But come on that turn bet is not a spew. It is correct to semi-bluff in situations like this. He has the chance of catching his flush and improving to the best hand, but also he is the one betting which is a +. If he is planning on not folding and planning on calling a bet from the opponent it is better to bet it himself. I have to say though why did you fold the river...If anyhting he has the 4
