Default Basic 2/4 Flush hand

I sometimes get confused as to how much certain hands are worth in smaller games and how much value I can squeeze out. Here's an example.

6-handed 400NL. Stacks $713.

Dude opens UTG. I call next w/ QJs. Button calls too. Blinds fold.

Flop 2s 4c 3s

PFR leads $35. I call. Button folds.

Turn (2s 4c 3s) Ah

Check. I check.

River (2s 4c 3s Ah) 6s

Ding! About $120 in the middle. $664 left.

He bets $75.

I do what?

I don't like flop/turn play very much, but I'd go ahead and raise to 275 or so and probably fold to a reraise.

i think flop/turn are ok, but agree with morrek about the river.

almost seems like a raise can't get called by any worse hands because wtf can u be bluff raising here? but i still raise to $280ish and fold to a 3-bet against most all of the 2/4 player pool. i also sometimes raise flop or bet turn, and i generally like a turn bet here because a 5 is very credible for u and i could see most players folding 66-kk(though some fold 66 and call kk cause they unintentionally randomize their calling range when they have two paired face cards as opposed to two paired low cards in my experience).

This is a sick spot for a push IMO, especially if this guy doesn't know you all that well. He'll instacall any flush really.

Raise/fold. Every other street sucks, though.

TWP,

I call most of the time pre-flop, sometimes reraise.

I call most of the time on the flop, sometimes raise.

I bet most of the time on the turn, sometimes check.

How would you play those streets?
