$6.50 NL HE STT Turbo: Play disguised flush well?

I called preflop due to great odds; I had a hunch that they'd have good cards and thought I could make big money if I hit 2-pair or better, would have given up on TP.

I checked the turn because I'd thought that it would scream I had a flush. I bet the river fearing a check down. Not sure if I played it well

I'm putting in a goofy little raise on the turn, as we have to act first on the river, so checking the river wouldnt be great.

I'm thinking that considering the amount of people who called the bet on the turn a raise was definitely best. However, since the A hit there range and I did not know that there would be a bet and a bunch of callers, I think that I should have bet the turn instead of checking, even if it does scream flush

I don't like the flop bet because preflop something told me that they had big hands, just how fast the two players called.

EDIT: I don't think I bet the river enough either; if they are prepared to call half-pot I think they'd be prepared to call 2/3rds

I think as played, apart from betting the turn, maybe min-raise it to represent an ace to build the pot. Then you can value bet it a little more on the river. However, I don't think it was badly played and you got a fair bit of value from the hand. I actually like the check on the flop giving you the free card for your flush

I probably would have put a bet of 150 on the turn.

But other than that, I would have done the same things.
