I called as a spec hand, with either the flush or straight. Flop was perfect for me, but I don't know if I should have bet less (1/3 pot?) or even check it through and hope to hide my nut flush if another heart hit to win a bigger pot, even if it doesn't happen every time (but that still doesn't feel right...)

Mostly I feel like I left some value on the table and made an OK, but not
EV optimal play over the long run.

Any help appreciated

I can understand when want to play cheap, but I think that this is a good spot to punish the weak villians with a squeeze light, specially with 2 villians with a coldCalling range.

Following your filosophy I would check this flop all day.
