Really looks like a flush.

I usually lead flop but I guess c/r can be ok too.

I may just stack off on the turn. This spot isn't very fun.

The double busted straight draw got there on the turn as well.

He has a flush almost always, so this is fine. Thank him for giving you a great price on the turn.

I would have folded the turn if he raised more. But I like the way this was played. You have good odds to fill up and your implied odds are enough to make this profitable.

BB all of a sudden likes his hand after the flop. Probably not drawing to a straight. Thus, he is likely doing one of 3 things: 1. bluffing, 2. drawing to a spade flush, 3. has top pair (10's). To me, it is more likely that he has a 10 than a flush draw considering he called the $12 bet. Of course it is possible that he flopped 2 pair. In either case, I bleieve his small bet on the flop, and subsequent call of the rather larger raise mean he was not on a flush draw. Therefore, I'd call the river.
That said -- I know you only wanted river comments, but I must also say that a bigger bet on the flop would have been prudent, especially because he is the BB and might feel more invested in the hand. I might have raised to $24 or $30. I always get mad at myself for sandbagging hands like this and chalk it up to being too greedy.

I think stacking off on the turn is pretty bad.

1) This is a limped pot, and villain can have any two spades in the BB.
2) Villain called a C/R on the flop, so his range is generally strong hands or strong draws.
3) Villain min-raises when the flush hits the turn.
4) Hero could easily have a flush himself, but villain doesn't seem to care.

How often are you ahead when you stack off on the turn under these circumstances?
