Check, and you lose, although not to a flush. He would have to be crazy insane loose for you to be able to get 3 streets of value with your hand.

If you bet the rest what is it? A value bet or a bluff?

A value bet hes not going to check behind a flush at this point when I can't fold, I thought he might have a weak king at this point.

As played, I think check behind, though I'm pretty sure I'd shove AK here, not sure if that's good though.

More importantly however:
multiway with that texture, I'm betting more on the flop, like 800.

And most importantly:
Shove the turn if you're going to bet 1500 with 2500 effective; you're going broke against all the same hands, you're just giving him a chance to save 1k if he's on a FD and it doesn't get there.

But isn't that what im trying to do? I want him to draw at the flush there if im betting 1500. Hes not getting the right price to draw so I don't mind him calling there. Thats ofcourse assuming that he would be scared off the flush draw by the all in. If hes going to react the same to both bets obviously all in is the better play.

fold pf, bet 950 on the flop, push the turn, but check the flop the way you played it.
