So he minbets out of BB into PF raisor and cold caller. I missed the flop and have a guy to act behind me. Does anyone get tricky here anyways? What's your play?

It's tempting to call with the 10-1 odds but that's deceptive b/c it's going to get raised. the min. bet says v. strong / faked weakness. I'd rather not piss the $$ away.

Any read on the min-raiser?

I would normally call here. I don't like it because it's almost certainly just pissing away chips but the combination of the odds and the fact that I'm holding the ace of hearts and can comfortably represent the nut flush should a third heart fall on the turn means that I would definitetly want to have a look at the turn.
