How would you play these rivers and what do you put your opponent on?

I believe I made that point that if he can push with a worse hand I will not raise. But there are plenty of worse hands that he can call with getting 3:1 on his money or whatever it is if you push the river.

I'm assuming you meant there are plenty of worse hands villain can have that hero can call here getting 3:1 to call villain's 3 bet push? Sure, but there are also plenty of better hands with the 3rd heart on the board, and the only way you are justifying a call on a 3-bet here is because the stacks are short and you have priced yourself in after raising, as you said you would raise and fold to a reraise if stacks were bigger. I certainly believe he would be capable of doing this with a worse hand with a bigger stack, especially if he was tilting, so you wouldn't be raising with him having a bigger stack, unless you didn't believe this, which I don't see why you wouldn't. Many arguements can be made for why pricing yourself into an immediate +EV situation in the sphere of an overall -EV situation is fundamentally wrong. I definatly don't mean to sound condescending, as I think this is a good discussion.
