Villian is 43/7/1.43/30, and he usually slowplays something good til turn. I was hoping for a safe turn card to raise.

I would just call, as I would hate being 3-bet.

Fold preflop. I call the flop with the intention of raising any non heart. Even though you know have Kings up, you need to either call down or fold. I definitely don't raise this turn, and the only way I raise the river is if I hit my four outer for the boat.

Also, I know his stats are terrible, but I see nothing wrong with a fold.

Do you really fold preflop with 2 posted bets already in at a very loose table? I expected 2-3 more calls.

The rest of your advice makes good sense to me though.

Fold preflop. Nothing tricky about this part.

Raising is the worst option on the turn. If he has a heart, he's not folding. If he doesn't have a heart, let him bluff the river. Raising risks the same 2BB.

No I don't. I don't read carefully enough either.
