This is scary, the guy flat calls my bet and the short-stack's all in. I'm not sure what to do here - warning bells are going off, I could be already beat. Only thing I can beat is him drawing to the Kh, an ace, or trip 2's, though it seems like a strange call with just an ace or the Kh. He could have 66, maybe A2, or a higher flush already. I decide to call with the intention of calling a non-heart (or otherwise scary, like an ace) river. Thoughts?

as strange as it feels for me to advocate folding a flush, i think you should have done it.

with 2 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]'s on board and 7 people in the pot, i think that villains are betting an A on the flop, so i wouldn't guess that the short stack or the cold-caller had hands like AT. if anyone's got a 2, it's most likely A2s or 22, in which case you're drawing dead, so i wouldn't think they were slow-playing trips.

that leaves flushes or boats. for bubbamaster to push, i think it's most likely he has a flush. if he had a made hand on the flop (except a boat), i would expect him to bet it. and when the other guy cold-calls, i would expect him to have a boat.

it's a fairly small bet to you on the turn, but you have to imagine you're going to face an all-in on the river if you're behind, and you have no draws to improve. in the best case, you're up against the K [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] and an A, and even then you have to dodge a lot of outs. i think it's a fold on the turn.
