Default $50NL: TPTK on Monotone Board

Villain is 47/13/1.5 after just 32 hands. I felt I had to push the turn to protect my hand from a flush draw. Meh, perhaps I am already behind though. How did I do?

Seat 1 : CO has $30.56
Seat 2 : Hero has $48.47
Seat 3 : SB has $146.40
Seat 4 : BB has $24.37
Seat 5 : Villain has $45.18
Seat 6 : UTG+1 has $46.01
Hero is the dealer.

NL. Blinds .25/.50

Seat 2 : Hero has K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]

Villain raised to $1.50
UTG+1 folded.
CO called $1.50
Hero raised to $6.50
SB folded.
BB folded.
Villain called $5
CO folded.
Dealing flop.

Board cards [Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]] (Pot: $14.50)
Villain checked.
Hero bet $10
Villain called $10

Dealing turn.

AA, KK, QQ, TT raise the turn to protect their hand against a flush draw - so I think he has Ah a lot when he flat calls. Trouble is, this means he frequently has AK too and is freerolling you. He also won't fold.

Trouble is, I don't know what to do on the turn and would probably do what you did and pray he has JhJ and the river is not a 4th heart (if he calls).

just check the turn, sometimes call a river bet. you'll see plenty of A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] and stuff like that trying to bluff by the river. i dont know if you'll get too many calls from hands you beat. though...vs. some opponents, this could be a nice value shove.

Awful flop. I'm probably cbetting a bit less, maybe $8 or $9 but thats really nitpicking. I would check behind on the turn and hope to see a cheap showdown. I'd probably call anything less than 2/3 the pot on the river if a blank hits and fold if a fourth heart hits.

I check the flop. If the turn is not a heart, a lot of chasers are reluctant to pursue it further, and thats when i put in my delayed CB.....

I don't like your hand as played....for certain sometimes you will get stacked playing like this.....and when they don't have it, you don't win their stack in return.....making it -EV in a rudimentary math sort of way.
