What's my line here? I'm leaning toward the passive side, check-calling the flop and turn thinking that a heart isn't going anywhere and may even knock me off the best hand and if I am ahead he probably has something like AQ which only has 3 outs.

I think the best way to get an honest response from villian is to call the flop and raise the turn. If he shows further aggression just fold.

OK I could see the value in raising the turn planning to take a free showdown as he'd have a hard time 3-betting a worse hand here I'd say.

I'm just not sure if I really have enough equity against his range of hands to make putting 2 BB in on a turn blank worth it.
