    I never really know what to do on turn situations like these. What do you if turn is spade or a blank. Obviously, i dont want a bloated pot with top pair decent kicker./

    without a read, looks ok to me.

    I hate advertising, "Pot for sale", but this doesn't look like a bluff any way you slice it. If you bet your draws, then I think I lead the turn and fold to a decent reraise. As played it's not bad. If there's a chance your opponent has a weaker king or is bluffing, the calls aren't bad at all.

    It really looks like a flush, but It's cheap, so I'm ok with paying it off.
