Hy guys , what about this hand ? My opponent I think it is a regular , I only have 27 hands with it , and I didn't see him doing strange thinks.
I defend my blind pre-flop , on the flop I didn't have enough pot odds but my hand have a lot of equity and I decide to c/r. On turn and river I think it is standard.

I do not like xr flop with this hand. I prefer xc with the middle draws.

You can also 3bet preflop against 3x open. Flop I don't like raising because of his sizing, cbetting pot on a wet board indicates quite a lot of strenght so I don't expect much fold equity + you're not drawing to the nuts. My general strategy here would be to raise only sets and A2/A4 spades if I called these pre, not bluffing anything else.

I would not raise middle FDs. I think you can call on the flop. Otherwise it looks ok.

I'd be x/c flop instead of x/r.

Weasel's video about when to x-r coming through in the responses here. Good stuff :f_thumbsup:

That said,

Flush over flush happens. Even if you just called the flop you'd probably be happy with a shove here. Sometimes you play perfectly and poker decides to give you a swift backhand, just because it can.
