Flush made on turn, how much to bet....

[Haplo]

The situation below may seem common place, but that's is really the reason why I am posting this. Situations like this can happen a lot, and I'd like to take maximize these situations.

My image at the table: tight overall (I'd been at the table for 20 hands or so).

UTG+1 seems loose---He had 72$
CO-139 hands, 33/9.3/1.4 Had 57$
I had 50$

Pre-flop: (9 players) Hero is BB with 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
UTG folds, UTG+1 calls, 3 folds, CO calls, 2 folds, 2 folds, Hero checks.

Flop: 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] ($1.75, 3 players)
<font color="#cc0000">Hero bets $1.2</font>, UTG+1 calls, <font color="#cc0000">CO raises to $5</font>, Hero calls, UTG+1 calls.

Turn: 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] ($16.75, 3 players)
<font color="#cc0000">Hero ??????

I want to make money and I want to bet. The question is how much? Pot (or do I scare them away with that bet.) 2/3 pot? ...

his reraise on the flop showed a lot of strength, so you can make here a reasonable bet like 12-14. If he realy has a hand it will be hard to lay it down.

Really bad flop call.

Bet $12.

[Atlanta Andrew]

Hero is not one bit dissapointed to take this pot down immediately, since another heart or board pair on the river makes hero cry.

Hero therefore bets at least $12.

Fold to flop raise. What was your plan on the turn if a heart didn't hit?

Why is it really bad? It's borderline perhaps, but not 'really bad'? Why do you say this?

The guy showed a lot of strength. I'm getting 2.4 to 1 to call, and I'm 4.2 to 1 to make my hand (not great, but with implied odds I think you can argue for a call--It is close I believe).

If there is not a heart on the turn I check, and probably fold to a big bet.

The big reraise gives you great implied odds. Bet hard and strong! If he reraises, push!
