I played a big pot and won with the worst hand and I want to know what you think about my thoughtproces.
We play a 2-2 cash game in the casino and I have a maximum starting stack of 500 euro.

MP raises to 12
We get As Kd and reraises to 40 in the LJ
The button cold calls
and the MP does calls as well.

The flop comes Ad, 9c, 5c, (Pot 120)
A good flop for as giving us top pair. The action flops to use and I make a standard c-bet of 33% so I bet 40 and only the MP calls

The turn is the 3c (Pot 200)
This is a pretty bad turn for us because we have no backdoor or blocker to the flush and our opponent already showed some strenght by calling a 3-bet and a flop bet but we play in position so after a check I decided to check back and try to get this hand to showdown with top pair.

The river is even worse, its the Tc (Pot 200)
But my opponent bets 60 and in my oppinion he shows his hand with this betsizing.
Would he ever bet just 60 when he has a nut flush? NO
Would he ever bet just 60 with the second nut flush? NO
He would always bet bigger.
So I decided to take a stand and move all-in for my remaining 420 and he snap folded 55 and was kind enough to show it after I showed my bluff.

Preflop
Standard 3-bet.

Flop
Standard C-bet.

Turn
I would also take a free card here, since I think, its a little optimistic to try to get 3 streets of value, now that the flushdraw has completed. AX of clubs is available, which is bad, because it drastically increase the amount of flushes, people can have in a 3-bet pot.

River
4-flush runouts are always very weird and there are basically no logical bluffs, since you cant block the flush without having it. So I guess, this is fine with the right read? Probably river raises are vastly underbluffed at 2/2, and if he know that, you might get quite a few folds. You could also call, since you are getting better than 4:1. But are you actually good here 1 out of 5 times? It would depend on him choosing to bluff for this sizing or block betting a hand like AQ, both of which seem like a bit of an assumption.
