I should probably play this faster on the turn at least, but I wonder about his passive play with a high flush/royal draw and if he can try to get something from a raise on the end instead from lower flushes and Ax hands maybe...?

when there is ever a combo, that you want to check on this flop, than it is AT. so i very much understand, where you are coming from.

as played i would check thrice.
you need that check / raise to get a return. in case villain has that flush, he will bet it anyway or he might even bluff at it.

still i would prefer a bet, as this flop is favorable for your range and thus a bet with your entire range makes a lot of sense.

I really like the raise to 6x against villains limp. I would definitely start betting on the flop immediately and with a sizing that will get him all in by the river. Villain is a fish so we are stacking him whenever he has an ace here. There are also draws and combo draws we will be getting value from. I think slow playing has little merit here since it is a very hard for villain to "catch up" on this board, so by far the most profitable line will be aggressive for the times that he has an ace/draw.

Against a random villain on NL2 I would go for 3 streets of value. I expect villain villain will call all kind of draws and if villain has nothing you don't get any action any way.
