I voted 3, but would probably only bet out 2-2.5 depending on villains stats.

5 at least. Guns ablazing

The pot is $3.85, we certainly dont need to bet any more that that here. If we do that we are spewing, bet at least $2.50 and no more than $3.50. We are still laying incorrect odds to chase the flush, and getting nice value from hands we are beating. We still could be up against AK remember, it fits his range.

I say bet 3. You probably have the best hand unless he slowrolled AA, KK or AK. You would know that from previous hands if he is capable of doing this.

I want to take this pot down right now. You have a flush draw and any cards higher than a 9 could bring in straight possibilities. There are just way to many scare cards to want to see another cards for cheap. You want to make them pay to chase their draws or chase the ace.

I again agree with tosborn It 's really funny.
I would say not 2-2.50 neither 3.
2.5 - 3 would be my bet.
I voted the 3 though.

A $3 bet would be my choice. Yeah, there are two spades on the flop but you want value with your top pair good kicker.
