I felt so lost here. Was the check on the turn bad? Standard fold on the river, even getting 4:1? What do I beat?

Easy fold. Everything got there, his line of c/r the flop looks clearly like a decent draw.

4 to 1 odds is great if you know you aren't dead. Here, you are clearly going down the river without a paddle.

good fold.

What about the turn check? Should I have bet, even though my two pair was counterfeited?

Hey Dana, glad to see you made it to cash! Finally got tired of the SNG's huh?

As for the hand, I'm not crazy about the raise on the flop unless you specifically planned to push any non-heart rag on the turn. If so, then it's a good play.

As played, you're in a tough spot now that you get counterfeited on the turn. I'd probably check behind here too. River is clearly a fold.

P.S. I'd probably 3-bet this preflop. The donkish min-raise from the button is usually a reraise with any two cards much less a decent hand like you had.
