You need to make a pot size bet at that flop, way to many draws out there. this more than likley would have won the pot right there. If called you are pretty PC if you pot bet the turn. So I either push or check call a small bet, and fold to a big bet. Depending on a previous play.

I would call the river bet, it not much for the size of the pot. I would say that he could have a # of hands you have beat. plus it gives you alot of info on his play.

Push the turn.

1. If you're wrong, you have outs unless he has the A-high flush.

2. You have him outchipped and won't be crushed if he beats you.

3. A flop call at the 15/30 blind level at Party could mean anything (if that's what's got you worried).

4. Your bet on the turn and check on the river practically screams "steal this pot from me".

I have a bad habit of thinking when someone calls the flop bet like this they are on a flush draw. When the 3rd heart comes on the turn I was thinking if he raises I would fold but that seems really weak.
When he only called the turn I was prepared to push on the river if anything but an ace fell.
I ended up calling his river bet even though I felt I was beat. He showed A 10.
