people fold sooooooo often here. Like all the time easy call.

edit: By soo often I mean way more than they should. Because they should fold about 0% of the time. But you will honestly get folds to a shove like 20% of the time.

Yeah, I don't see any particular reason to shove here. I mean, if he ever folds its a mistake for you to push. You might say "charge a heart draw", but a) he's certainly not folding a flush draw and b) you aren't folding if a 3rd heart hits, so if he's got a heart draw, the rest of the money is going in anyway, and if he sucks out, he sucks out.

I would go ahead and push the turn if he checks behind though. No sense in having it come heart-heart and making you throw up.

Something like that. Although both are obv rare, he prob folds the flop more often than a [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] on the turn and he c/fs it. Its one of those plays that you feel dirty doing cause it's like transparent and stupid but at the same time its the best move at the moment (like the rare time you min raise the nuts or something).
