I didn't think a bet on the flop would fold out any decent hearts or Qx hand here and really don't want to get raised, so I wait for a safe turn (non-Ace, non heart) to make my move. Good, Bad, Awful?

I think the flop check is bad/awful because even if it does not fold out a heart, you are ahead of one heart right now and so a call is not a bad thing.

Also, by checking you are giving infinite odds for someone with any heart to hit their flush.

Why are you afraid of being raised?

[Genesis]

Mainly because once I c-bet, if raised I have so much invested I think I have to call. But I guess that doesn't make much sense since I plan on going all-in on a safe turn anyway. Only difference is they have one less street to draw on.

[mecbluefugate]

So are you shoving any non-heart turn?

Why not shove flop if raised, especially since you'll be called by the draws you are ahead of. If you wait for turn to hit, you are less likely to get called by the lone heart (if you shove non heart), and when the turn falls heart you either arent shoving or are shoving -EV b/c of how often they have the flush.

I dont mind it as you really do not want to get raised on the flop, but the check can definitely get a Q or strong heart to take a line like this.

[Phalaris]

i think i bet this flop always and call a shove. you are folding all heart turns right. the pot is huge bet and get it all in.

No likie. Bet the flop, call a shove, watch the moron have like Qx or a nekked heart, profit.

Bet/call shove on the flop.
