Can't find the exact stats on the villain but he is loose passive.

I know my starting hand is garbage but I was unraised in the BB :D

I am having trouble playing these hands and they just won't stop coming :(

OK so this time I am obviously losing only to a straight flush (he didn't have it) but still the hand needs review:

1. On the turn if T (or 2) didn't come I planned to check/fold since if he called the flop and bets after my turn check he probably has a flush already (as it turned out he did but slowplay cost him dearly). Correct or not? I might be drawing to the full house even if I am currently beat, but that is a slim chance.

Should we not fill up on the turn we should never be checking unless the flush comes.

Why would you assume he has a flush if he bets when you check? I have noticed you give opponents way too much respect for their hands. Be realistic, assign a range of hands they would bet with and narrow it down as the streets unfold.
