Marginal plays all around, I think. Maybe it's standard, though. I dunno.

Flop call may be a little thin, but it looks good to me.

The flop call is close because it looks like there's a pretty good chance you'll have to pay 2 bets to see the turn. I can't really make a strogn case either way though, so I'd call. Looks fine.

~9.5:1 isn't enough to get me to call this preflop. Well, maybe once in a blue moon if the table is really loose and passive.

Flop and turn seem OK to me.

I didn't think I'd get check-raised very often. This isn't a board that the PFR would be comfortable checkraising on, especially with only 2 players left to act. He also wouldn't want to risk giving a free card with the hearts on board. So I was relatively sure I would only pay one bet and thus be getting 12 or 13-1 on the flop call, with only one of my 5 outs being slightly tainted.

I'd call any 2 suited here.

When a preflop raiser checks a flop not being the last to act I think it's foolish to not conisder the chances of seeing a check raise to be higher than usual.

I don't like this statement at all.
