If he's a solid thinking player, he isn't straddling UTG unless he's trying to loosesn up a tight game. I suspect he's more fishy than you think.

This is confirmed by his awful turn sizing. I'd raise that weak bet with ATC most of the time.

Obvious river shove is obvious. He's never folding any straight. Sets and 2-pair prob aren't paying off any raise on a 4-straight board, so go for max value. If he hit a back-door flush, punch yourself in the Jimmy for not raising turn and letting him set such a cheap price.

Hmmmm Soo true.
So I should of raised the turn?
I knew as soon as he bet that big that he had the flush. Poor move by me...

I flat. He tabled over A4 of diamonds.

Yes, when someone bets tiny on the turn like that when a draw is becoming possible, there is a good chance they are a) betting to set a cheap price to draw, b) betting to "see where they're at, or c) both. You can usually raise them with any two cards and take the pot if they have a fold button. Some Vs will go "damn, you've got me beat," and then call anyway. This is fine if you have a value hand, but they are the wrong ones to bluff.

When you have a choice between:
1. Drawing cheaply
2. Shoving with king high in a multi-way pot

Which option do you choose?

OP, I think you made a mistake assuming you were peeking at the Villain's cards otherwise, ...

I'm pretty sure OP is gonna misapply Garrick's advice and start shoving vs. every small turn bet.
