My thoughts to this hand:

Pre:
It`s a value 3bet vs BTN-Range (would not be sad if he folds)

Flop:
Could be worse. I bet 2/3 pot, because of having Nut flush draw an playing OOP. So i want to build up pot and have some fold equity

Turn
Dream-Card. I bet small to let him call or even raise (guess as bluff he could raise some hands)

River:
a Blank. But i want some additional money, so i bet some larger to get a call with some hands...
and than he shoves into my nuts.... so snap call

So my questions:
Did i play the hand correct (betsizes, especially on turn an river.... and on the other streets)
And with which kind of hands he can shove here? and for what intenion?
Do you have some ideas?

Thanks for answering!

I get the logic behind betting small OTT but I'm not sure if that really will get us the most money on the long run. I would size my bet OTT in a way that lets me comfortably shove river. That way we get his whole stack whenever he happens to have a weaker flush, straight or gets sticky with some other strong hands. Also there are some bad cards we wouldn't like to see OTR.
When villain shoves OTR I would say it rarely is a pure bluff, most likely he is a beginner player and overvalues his small flush or straight.

Thanks for reply.

Villain had really, really showdown value....
so he shoved as a bluff here...
i guess in this case he would have folded against standard betsize on turn...
against a regular it would have been better to bet standard size or even high to let it look like a bluff
