I think this is fairly standard, but I got berated at the table lol, so double check, thoughts on the turn push?

Turn push is horrible. You want worse hands to call not fold and the made flush isn't going anywhere. This was a multiway pot. PF and Flop std.

my thought process on the turn push:

there is no way that i can give up a free card on that board

he only has 3.65 left, if i bet half the pot i expect him to push and i'll have to call right?, if I check I expect him to push or bet half the pot and then I'll probably have to push/call

so pushing seemed like as good of choice as any

Given stacks, he is committed as you found out. IMO you need to let him bluff at it after you give up your "c-bet" so you win money he's behind.

bah if he's committed he's coming anyway. nm

Also, you should try to boat up on the river more often.
