Seems perfectly reasonable, I guess my question would be, what do you do if he checks the turn or river?

I love it.

I bet for value if checked to. Obviously not folding turn if villian checkraises. Probably not river either becuase I love to pay off. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Seems fine. I don't see any value in raising, and you're obviously not folding anywhere. Maybe the river, but I still would call. I do think he very likely has AQ here.

Only other way to play it might be Raise/Fold Turn.

You might win a bet less (since he folds the turn), when he has a weak holding, if he raises you can probably fold, which would cost you the same amount as calling on the turn/river, but you won't see the river card, which could be your K, to get a better 2pair. He will never fold AQ/AJ (or better) and you only win a bet extra when he has A/x(small).

Nope, call/call it is.

raisefold the turn is bad since we can never fold it, because we picked up the heart draw and we already have a gutshot draw.

Suppose he checks the turn, I think if we did not have the heart draw I would check behind, planning to call any UI river. But with the hearts I think it's an easy bet.
