I would probably not lead the flop. Someone will probably bet and you may checkraise.

Check/raising on this board isn't as good as leading. It probably pushes out hands like AJ/KJ which we can get value out of on future streets by allowing them to play perfect.

This was played very well; just a ridiculous 4th and 5th street.

He's giving 3:1 on the river. Do we not see a missed flush draw and the same straight from an utg+1 limp here atleast 1 in 3 times?

Maybe this is where I am getting myself in trouble, but I would think we are good here 1 in 3 times.
