Turn is a xb.
On river just call. Nothing worse will call this raise.

You could just check behind OTT but I don't think betting is bad. Our equity improved a lot and villain might call with some Tx,Jx,draws etc..
OTR villain donks when flush completes and you are not holding a nut flush. I think it is better to just call. And much weaker hands will not call your raise.

The problem is that when villain pushes OTT we have 15 outs, non to the nuts ( the K may not be an out at all)...
With betting we should fold all this equity and I don't like that.

Imo we should not think like that. It is not when villain pushes OTT, it is a big IF villain pushes OTT. By betting we make some better hands fold (smaller pocket pairs, Tx) and some worse draws might continue calling. I also believe that if villain is not ready to call our turn bet, he is not going to bet or call river either when the flush completes. Checking behind turn and hoping we hit OTR is ok plan but i don't still see betting turn as a bad option.

Nono, we should think just like that. If we raise what is going to happen?
All stronger hands will call your bet ( even PP) and if villain raises you do not have odds to call... Why raise then?
Cause we "feel" something?
No. We have good equity and I do not like giving it up, cause of some fancy move, you cannot explain...

And none of your outs is to nuts...

I lost you. I was talking about betting on the turn. Do you think pocket pairs like 77-99 and some Tx are going to call turn bet too? I doubt that. We are in a bad spot if villain raises, that is true. But if we check do we expect to get any value out of villain when flush completes?

I am talking about turn too.
Of course we can get value on river - these are BD draws...

Exactly, theese are BD draws. Thats why we are not affraid of raise/calling the donkbet OTR. ofc the donk will get it in with any flush he has. If he has A high flush, congratz to him.

The Jack of spades comin in on the turn gives you a perfect opportunity to go with another barrel, edgy spot generally, i'd just call otr.
