Just need some feed back on this hand.

How do I do on this hand preflop?

Should I C-bet flop or is delay cbet good?

Now that I look into into this I think I ran into the backdoor flush.

Tough hand to play OOP to that board. Sometimes I Cbet 1/3 flop and sometimes I check/fold.

I dont hate turn and river bets but especially river can be costly. It seems villain has the hand you are trying to rep.

You can't cbet this flop every time, and when you cbet it you need to use a big sizing. When you cbet here you say "yes I know my offsuit broadways missed this flop completely, but I still have all the overpairs to crush you", so you bet big. Anyway, I imagine we check quite often with our exact holding.

Ts on the turn is bad for your hand (still A high & you don't have a spade) and not great for your range. Since BTN checked behind flop they're supposed to have a not-too-strong range that you can attack sometimes. But x/f is also fine I believe, we can't win every pot.
When you bet here you say "I checked flop with my overpair because I have to balance sometimes, now I'm going for value and you are very capped because you checked behind on the flop", and again you bet big. I would bet 24bb or so.
But I would really want to have a spade here I believe, it makes less likely villain will call the turn bet.

River just x/f.

preflop is whatever
Postflop I think you are spazzing out rly.
I'd prefer cbet/ give up than this line
