looks good
pf and flop are standard obviously
turn you obviously have to at least call with the Q icon_suit_diamond.gif , were you debating a raise or osmething? I wouldn't raise there since overcards are getting improper odds anyway and you can't make the K icon_suit_diamond.gif fold. Then again, I can see the benefits if EP2 is passive since you almost always get a SD for the same price, but price out the other guy at the same time.
River I can't see a raise since you essentially have just the 5th one-card nut flush (SF on board) + a pair on board.

mostly the turn.

i chose to call, and i feel it's best, but i think raising might be slightly close, but i felt like raising would be kind of spewing. if heads-up, way easy call. but when three-way, it's tough to decide what's more important--protecting my hand from ep1 in case i'm ahead of ep2, or losing the least when i'm behind ala wa/wb. the pot wasn't huge, so i thought i should err on the side of wa/wb.
