I play it the same way. Were you betting a non-heart river?

[Haupt_234]

Your play looks good to me chess.

I assume you were planning on check/calling the turn?

And I wouldn't bet out on this river card, either. If the player is sane (which is a big assumption since he is an unknown), you only have JT beat by the river.

Looks good.

I can't put him on a hand, but AT, KT, 64, and 75 all seem w/in the realm of possibility. The flop-cap/turn-check is interesting: is he possibly good enough buy a free card with TPBadK (say JT, T8, etc)?

I'm with Haupt, c/c that river. The flush card + overcard + flop aggression gets a check out of me, too.

NH.

This is a standard raise for me preflop.

Postflop looks good, although an alternate line would be to bet the turn with the intention of folding to a raise. If not raised on the turn then checking a non-heart river to induce a bluff or betting a heart river and folding to a raise.

I normally don't pfr this preflop, but I think you are right that a raise is good. Your equity is good. It's great to keep it 3 handed, and you buy some nice fold equity if an ace falls.

this is a good point. I think people are underestimating the value of getting the BB to give up his equity by raising preflop when we have decent equity to begin with.

I don't really think my equity is that great, especially HU against a TAG who openlimps in MP1.

With that Cap he's got a set or A6 suited hearts.
but those checkes on turn and river mean over pair, TPTK, or straight draw.
I like the 3 bet on the flop
