I typically make a value bet here assuming I'm ahead, mainly due to his check. If he hits his flush, ecspecialy any flush he would of limped in with preflop...he's betting out the river. Bet the river, ecspecially if you have a good read and notice he limps a lot.

I actually dont mind the check myself. I see the case for a value bet here but of course the down side is it opens you up to the raise and makes for a tough decision if/when that raise comes. str8 and flush out there and its a nice little pot for the level which id be very happy to check down here. I doubt youd have gotten a call anyway either a fold or raise from your opponent most likley. I think you played the hand well but perhaps a little bigger raise would have been in order after the flop with 6 people in. You want the draws out and to take the pot down asap.
