Villain had me nervous after calling the cbet on that flop; I would have folded had he popped me back.

Was check/folding a good line? Should I have put a value bet on the river?

Flop: Bet bigger, like $1
Turn: Bet for value!
River: Not really sure about betting here, if only a small bet. Lets see what judges advice.

You have a very strong hand here - tptk + nutflashdraw, so bet for value. Possibility of a made flush on the flop heads up is really small, you shouldn't be afraid of that. You don't need to protect your hand that much, cause a heart gives you the nuts, but you should never bet lower than half the pot, and on that kind of boards bet at least 1$.

This call by him means nothing and on turn you improve even further, bet and get value from AQ, AJ and flushdraws.

1) bet 2/3 flop
2) bet again for both protection and value and to build a pot if u hit flush. Facing a raise, ship it, your hand is more than enough to go broke with!!!
3) blockbet/possible fold to a raise on the river if you don't hit flush. If you hit bet bigger

You played that extremely nitty.
