why do you raise the turn? go for the overcall, your hand doesnt need much protection and there is not much value on a 3-flush onecard straight board.

riverfold is something i never do but that doesnt make it wrong, idk, paying off even when you know you're beat...

I think raising the turn is fine... If SB had the Q with you, then you're freerolling with your nut flush draw, so you have to push this edge... it's unlikely that a worse hand will overcall anyway (might get one from the King of hearts... and a set obviously calls one). But i think the raise on turn is correct, once i get 3bet i would call, and then fold a river that isnt a king (passed up KQ) or a heart obviously.

The turn raise is bad. SB called two cold on the flop and then led out this turn...strongly suggestive of a draw that has hit and is now afraid of the turn getting checked through. He could have QT-Q8, but there's a good chance he has hearts. You don't have any reason to try to knock button out of the hand, and you can't expect to get a lot of calls from worse hands if you raise the turn. So overcall the turn and overcall the river unimproved.
