Everyone at this table had a VPIP over 40, very passive so I didnt think limping PF was a disaster.


Did I do anything right this hand?

I probably would have folded preflop. But I can see that you want to take a flop and try to hit a big hand and let some maniacs spew to you, so I think it is okay in the right type of game.

I think the turn should be bet, but the big question is, what do you do if you're check-raised? Well, I think that you can live with being check-raised here. Top two is pretty strong shorthanded (and you can beat a few hands that might check-raise you, like AT, AhXx, lower two pair, etc.), even though a 7 or two hearts could be out there. And if they are, you still have FH outs to fall back on. I think I bet the turn.

fold preflop

call the flop raise and raise a good turn, how you did it, you need to bet the turn, you cant be scared of the flush or the seven, and from his action its less likely he has either of those, dont give him a free card to beat you with.

river, well that one is obvious /images/graemlins/smile.gif

Bet the Turn, call a raise.

You are ahead enough times to make the Turn bet for value, you will be raised enough times by a single /images/graemlins/heart.gif or worse hands to make calling down easy, and you will hit FH enough times and extract the max from the flush to cover any doubts you may have.
