I put him on a flush , because with better hand( full house) he won't raise only 4$ more

but there was the UTG too, he called my riverbet, I think he could have an A,and I don't know if I reraise only to 20$ on river, UTG could call too, and UTG+button calls would be bigger profit, but it's not sure, so river reraise AI would be better

Flop chk is fine, but for love of god bet the turn harder.

They're going to call/raise with anything reasonable and you need to build a pot. You're usually not going to see a raise when you bet the river, and if you do, it'd be better to have a bigger pot as well.

Imagine this:
Turn: 2 ($2.5, 5 players)
SB checks, Hero bets $2, UTG calls, CO folds, Button calls, SB folds.

River: A ($8.5, 3 players)
Hero bets $6, UTG calls, Button raises to $12, Hero pushes, UTG folds, Button calls.

or...the more likely...

Turn: 2 ($2.5, 5 players)
SB checks, Hero bets $2, UTG calls, CO folds, Button calls, SB folds.

River: A ($8.5, 3 players)
Hero bets $6, UTG calls, Button calls (or one of them folds)

Final pot -- 20-26

as opposed to

Turn: 2 ($2.5, 5 players)
SB checks, Hero bets $.5, UTG calls, CO folds, Button calls, SB folds.

River: A ($4, 3 players)
Hero bets $4, UTG calls, Button calls or folds

Final pot 12-16

Button has shown he likes his hand a lot, so play to win his whole stack rather than to catch a bet from both players. If UTG comes along, so much the better, but it's just icing on the cake. He didn't raise when given the chance, so it's likely his hand is pretty average. If he's dumb enough to call $20 here, he'll call a push.

What you really don't want is to bet $20, UTG folds and Button calls with 55 or the nut flush or w/ever, because he would have called a push whereas UTG is likely not calling anything serious

I'm meh on betting the flop, but def. bet the turn more like $2
