I hate calling down in situations like this, but I can't help it sometimes.

I posted in the CO, 8 handed 8/16 at full tilt.


Dealt:
MP1 Raises, MP2 calls, I call, everyone else folds.

Flop
They both check, hmm interesting. Somehow it feels like a trap, but I can't resist.

2 Checks, I bet, MP1 calls, MP2 folds.

Turn
Mp1 bet outs


... What to do? As I said earlier in the post, I had posted in and this was my first hand at the table, I had no stats on the villain.

Is he semi bluffing a high heart? Does he have a high pair?

If he does have a high pair, he might not have a heart. In which case I pickup several flush outs, but I can't really realistically fold if the river comes a blank, either.

Or maybe he has nothing but J-A high without a heart, just donking it up on the turn...

I realize you can't put him on a hand without a read, but do you think it's correct to call down here, given likely %'s of what range of hands he may hold?

If he had the flush, he probably would have continuation bet semi-bluffed the flop. I also think he would bet an overpair on the flop. I'd put him on a semi-bluff on the turn - he has a single heart. I'd call the turn and hope for a non-heart on the river. We may still win with a 5-high flush on the river, but I seriously doubt it.

I would raise and check behind on any river card other than a 5
