With the pot this big, there's no way to protect against the flush draw, so I'd raise the flop as a value bet. I like the turn.

No way I bet this river. It's very likely that one of the two has a heart and my bet into a 16.75 BB pot isn't going to frighten anyone. Worst case is that we get check-raised. How does our bet win any money? Is anyone without a heart going to call?

No, the pot is so big that the flush draw already has the right odds to call on the turn by the flop. Just get more money in here because you're ahead right now.

I would check the river, the rest looks good.

Bet/fold. If someone has a flush and is straightforward he is going to lead out. UTG probably hit a J on the flop and was pushing for info. BB has QQ, KK or some pair, if raised he probably has a K [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] or Q [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. You might even represent the A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] to them and they fold.

Check behind. You arent getting any flush to fold and its very unlikely that your opponents are going to call if they dont have you beat. So a raise here accomplishes nothing but throwing money away when you are beat.

:grunch: Raise the flop, it's unlikely anyone has a heart so you probably have the best hand and a small heart might even be folded. Check the river behind, there can easily be a heart.

No shame in checking here. HU I might bet but 3 way there's more than likely someone's got a heart and it only takes one.

Unrelated to the topic question:

I keep seeing *grunch* everywhere. What does it mean?

It means people are responding to the original post without reading any of the replies. It's done so that later discussion on the hand doesn't affect the poster's first reaction, and is a good way to get some experience in evaluating situations.
