was instantly gonna reraise the donk lead but when the caller came along i was thinking i should be dumping my hand. UTG was limping habitually from all pos and BB had no clear read on him. should i have stuck with initial plan to raise or is a call in order and ship it on any none spade turn card? wt about a shove and let drws chace me? confused here. how do top players do it consistantly?
looking back at HH i realize my raise size was pretty small, so dont crucify for that, lol

Pot is ~ 2400 after the donk bet and call. If you raise the donk bet you are committed, so a shove would be the only raise to make on the flop, with your remaining stack being about a pot sized raise.
That being said, with two cards to come do you want to risk all your chips trying to fade a flush draw, or possibly drawing next to dead to a made flush.
I think I would fold but flush draws always get there against me 
My first intention – to shove (usually 
), but after thinking for a while, i click “fold” instead of it. With such stack sizes I have only 2 decisions – fold or shove here. There are some hands which beat us already, and against pair with 1 spades – we have a flip. Still have good stack to find another spot to get our chips back.

I would have folded preflop to the utg limp.
Even if You see – that UTG limps a lot? When player, who looks competent, limp UTG – agree, it's often will be a monster, but when fish limps … i'm not sure.

Personally I would let this one go. You missed the flop and you have a couple of straight draws thay only require one more card and/or the flush could have already made it. The only reasonable raise is a shove as previously mentioned, I would not want to rely on a pair of jacks with a King kicker with the flush and straights out there.

I shove.If anyone has As it's a coin flip.With a jack and a spade card again 50-50.So,not the best situation but with your stack and the money in the pot i can't fold.I don't believe that donk bet by antichoc is a set or made flush.And the call from the utg limper can be anything in these tours.He limps with AJ,AQ,55,77?if so,maybe i fold pre especially if every pot has 3 players minimum.I mean with your stack pre and a loose table i don't play KJo.
Ya at such a loose table I'd wait for a better spot and fold pre here. With only 27bbs unless utg has been limp/folding a lot then you can make an argument that you are raising as a steal but then we are in a tough spot when we flop pretty big. We still have a decent stack left and could be drawing dead a good % of the time here so I fold flop.
