    I guess it's wp until the turn. or bigger flop raise? and push the turn right? or should i just flatcall the flop and go in the dark? and since i made that shitty situation on the river for myself, can i fold that or am i too committed already?

    that river is a mad ugly situation, tuff to fold but ur probably at best splitting and there are pleanty of hands he could have that beat u. i think u need a bigger flop raise. with the flop played as it was i would either push the turn or check behind. i dont like betting about half my chips.

    On the turn, I think you have to either push or check behind, because in this case you gave yourself little fold equity for the river based on your bet size on the turn. And then when the spade fell you were left in a tough spot.
