This is from a very, very loose online 100nl game I just played about five minutes ago. I think I played it pretty poorly and I was hoping to hear some input, especially regarding my decision process.

sti* Waiting
Cas*1 Small Blind 0.5
HERO (K9) Big Blind 1
nut* Big Blind 1 dead
nut*Check 1
Iflo* Raise 4
Bal* Call 4
jim* Call 4
Pol* Fold
Sha* Call 4
Cas* Call 4
HERO Call 4 (I thought at the time that this was a pretty clear call getting 7.5:1 with a hand that can flop a very strong draw. I also think UTG is virtually always coming along
nut* Call 4

Flop (28.5): J T Q
Cas* Check
HERO Bet 18 (So we flop the second idiot-end straight. Already, I feel like my preflop call has put me in a tough spot. I chose to bet here to deny the other players good odds to outdraw me if they had not already flopped the flush and because I did not want this board to get checked around, which has often happened in these massive pots. Typically most of the players have more or less air. Additionally, I think I'm getting value from draws to the nut flush as well as sets and two pairs, which should raise here. In hindsight, I'm not so sure I like betting at all, because I'm always going to have a hard decision on the turn. However, can I really just hope to check it down 2 additional streets 7 way?)
nut* Fold
Ifl* Call 18
Bal* Fold
jim* Fold
Sha* Fold
Cas* Fold

Turn: 6
HERO Check
Ifl* Bet 32
HERO Fold (At this point I just don't see any point in continuing the hand, since we are almost certainly beaten. Villain's range contains pretty much only flushes)
Ifl* Muck
Ifl* wins 61
