Preflop: Hero is CO with A:d, J:h.
4 folds, MP3 calls $0.02, Hero raises to $0.10, BU calls $0.10, 2 folds, MP3 calls $0.08.

Flop: ($0.33) 6:d, 2:d, 8:h (3 players)
MP3 checks, Hero checks, BU checks.

Turn: ($0.33) Q:d (3 players)
MP3 checks, Hero checks, BU checks.

River: ($0.33) 4:d (3 players)
MP3 bets $0.02, Hero raises to $0.16, BU calls $0.16, MP3 calls $0.14.

Final Pot: $0.81.

Results follow:

BU shows a flush, king high(A:c K:d).
Hero shows a flush, ace high(A:d J:h).
MP3 shows a flush, queen high(5:c 5:d).

Hero wins with a flush, ace high(A:d J:h).

So my question is did I play it right by checking and hoping I can get my flush and then bet on river, or should I try to build a bigger pot?
