No real read on opponent. Seems like decent TAG.

Awesome.

If you're checking the turn you should be doing it to check raise. He could easily have KJ or AJ here and you're missing value, a gutter is unlikely if he's a solid TAG.

Agreed now that I look back on it. Thanks.

I'm not a fan of a check on the turn, just lead out again for about 3/4 pot. River is an easy fold.

You need to bet pot on the turn too, you hit 2nd pr, why are you checking? and giving a free card here?

[yo5ty]

yeah I don't understand why the check. I feel you need to block the 3rd heart there with a pot sized bet.

Given the check play, with the 2 hearts out, and the very high likelyhood you are ahead with 2 pair why not raise his very weak 1/3rd pot sized bet?

I bet 5 on the turn, I think I play the river the same, depending on villain.
