PF w/e
Flop w/e
Turn if you bet the flop bet again or c/r. I like betting twice because c/r looks enormous.

I would have c/r flop, then lead turn. As played- raise to $160. I thinkg c/r this turn is aweful becuz it's really obvious u have a flush that AK and JQ are able to fold (once in a while). I would have lead turn for $55 and try to get it in ASAP.

You gotta check raise this, the last thing you want is to slowplay this and not get any value out of it on the river. Also how do you play the river if a club comes off? You cannot play it too strong then. I like 140-180 total here on the turn, and if he calls your shoving any non club

I fold preflop. Floplead is good, CR is also good. Lead turn though after leading flop.

Easy turn bet. Betting doesn't look strong at all in this spot IMO. You just called a PFR and donked into him twice on a scare card. Check/raising is also pretty bad here, especially if you checked to induce a bluff. Its so easy for him to put you on marginal hand with possible draw in this spot, that you have to let him fire river if take this line.

I don't see why everyone thinks c/r this is terrible. Its much better to take it down on the turn then to lose a big pot if the river comes with a club. If he isn't calling a big c/r here chances are hes not calling much on the river either...unless we're beat.

Checkraising turn is uugggly, betting is probably best, but if you check it definitely check/call, then maybe lead river or check again if he plays good.
