Grunch.
MP2 could be slow playing trips or a straight or betting a flush draw, but since you are last to act I think you have an advantage. Raise the turn. If you are reraised you can release your hand. If they call down I think they're showing weakness and I'd raise or bet on a non-heart river for value.

This smells like spew to me. I take that back. This definately IS spew. Hero has Ace high here. What is he betting/raising with?

Edit: Disregard the Ace high comment. I forgot about the ace on the turn. Still spewing though.

Alright, so do you call or fold? Again, I'm posting my grunches to learn and they aren't necessarily going to be good strategy, but how I would play the hand. If I'm wrong, I'm here to learn. I appreciate you letting me know you think my grunch is wrong though.

If raising is too loose, I'm going to fold. I think the value in the raise would be to take control on the river, but if these guys are playing tight and the turn raise comes across as a message of strength then you should get out of the hand. Calling here seems like it doesn't achieve anything.
