Ok, so this is my first post as I am a new member, so be gentle. i would like to know opinions on how i played this hand, did i open for to much? was it a mistake to shove the turn? i have no read on villain, as he was new to the table. thanks,

Preflop, my normal open @ the 75/150 level is around 395, plus a BB for each limper, so in this spot I make it 695.
So your open is maybe a little on the lower side compared to mine, but at least you're your charging the limpers.
On the flop, I bet closer to half pot, you've flopped a big draw here, time to start building a nice pot, any spade, any Queen and maybe your Ace is good as well.
On the turn, he donk min bets….. Tricky spot. If the turn didn't pair up the board and was more of a brick, I feel alot more comfortable shoving, however our flush may not be good enough now (bar the Q-spades of course) (T9, TT, 99 just shafted us, and where behind QJ etc)…..
I think I'm inclined to flat the Turn (or put in a small raise) and see what comes on the river…….. Although i certainly don't hate the way you played it on the turn, i think i just err on the side of caution….. and see what the river brings and what he does.

i dont like your bet on the flop – for some reason, betting the same on the flop as you did preflop just seems fishy to me. i would be betting 700-900, probably something like 850 i reckon.
on the flop, i agree with southpaw, i would just flat, i doubt villain folds anything – villain seems like a fish given the limp preflop and now the min bet on the turn.
i would flat and hope to hit your half a deck of outs.

Pre-flop your bet is on the low end of ok, with two limpers already and more left to act, =>650 from your position would have been better IMO. I do not like the post-flop C-bet of 579, your giving the villian great odds to call and you have not made your hand yet. His bet on the turn is either a shitty value bet or air. I think on the turn I would flat or 3x, but I would not shove with only one card to come.

I didn’t like my flop bet here either, after I bet it I knew it was a mistake. On the turn I don’t like my shove either, I didn’t even think about what he might have, I just looked at my hand and all of the outs that I could have. For all I know I could have been drawing dead to the Q of spades. I like the flat on the turn much better. In the end he turned over QQ and took down the hand. Thanks for the comments,
