If you are asking for opinions on the hand, here goes. Good play on 3rd and 4th. I absolutely love the raise on 5th for a free card, so that way if you hit on 6th, youve got the extra bet in, but if you dont, you didnt have to call anymore. Now on 6th though, you've got to put him on two pair by now, since he called a 3 bet on 3rd. That being said, he has checked to you, and you can now get your free card that you raised on 5th for. You most likely have a pair higher than either of his, and you have a flush draw, so a free card is optimal here. Also, on 7th street, you've got to know you are beat, since you missed all your draws, and he is not going to fold for that much more, since he's already called you down anyways. Here is another situation where a check can save you some money. I noticed that you are far too aggressive in limit games. You can't often push people off their marginal hand for one more bet, even if they think that they are beat. You've got to do more reading of people's hands and just realize when you should give up on the hand and check.
