The turn hit you, and another heart makes your hand crap, so raise. His 1/2 pot bet looks like a where do I stand bet.

Dr J.,

Board is already nasty. I like to protect hands as much as or more than the next guy, but I don't worry about it nearly as much on the turn. Dude's postflop aggression is 11. He's likely to 3 bet any kind of combo draw and then what do you do? You're definitely over-repping your hand if you raise the turn. Maybe that would put you in a spot to bluff something like 2 pair off on the river, but I think looking for value from worse hands is a better line here.

Thanks Microbet, this may be a spot where I tend to build a big pot with a small hand and I should be keeping it small, but if a low heart comes on river I find myself calling a reasonable bet and often losing.
