The slow play on that turn was a very good move.

I disagree with the check on the turn. One reason is that there are 3 flush cards on the board so you are giving the guy a free chance to beat you if he has a Spade. Another reason is that you already check raised him on the flop and he called you so if you bet on the turn he probaly is going to call you again unless he has two high cards, but he might still call you there because I have seen people in low limit games just call down to the end with high. So over the long run you are just giving him a shot to beat you with a flush.

Also if you are going to slow play a hand, I like to wait to the turn to raise because the bets are doubles so you can get more money in there if he calls you. So I would have just called on the flop and then he probaly would have bet again on the turn and then you can make your move.
