OESD turning into a bluff, bad spot?

I might play the flush like that, i'm pretty sure he would raise the flush at the turn. His stats: 20/3/2.7AF/28WtS

MP ($204.40)
Hero ($98.50)
SB ($257.45)
BB ($227.65)

Yes. Bad spot as the turn completed a possible flush draw and villain doesn't fold to a meaningful bet.

I like it. Villian seems to not like his hand much anymore. Unless I had been getting out of line recently I would bluff this river most of the time as well.

I do not like the bet size. Villian seems weak so if I had the flush I would bet between 1/3 and 1/2 the pot on the river to get a call from their weak hand. Half pot seems good here, it looks like a value bet but is enougth to get most players to fold. It also saves you money when villian has a real hand, as I doubt he is folding any more frequently to a pot bet on river than a half pot bet.
