That would be AK. I hadn't even considered the heart draw, I was honestly only thinking about the second player having a Q or not.

I was definitely folding if he led the turn.
If I get C/R'ed, do I fold right there or call it and fold the river UI? I've been having problems folding to turn raises (I think it's that whole "protect your image" thing).

You fold it right there. You can afford to make loose calls on the flop, where you aren't losing a full BB. Not so on the turn.

Yeah if you call a turn check/raise with a made hand, you are almost always calling on the river UI. In this hand, there is no way you can call a turn check/raise.

The reason that you can make loose calls on the flop is that it...

A. Only costs you a small bet.
B. Good for the image.
C. If you do hit, you get 2 streets to collect big bets (instead of one when you call a turn c/r and hit). So you could invest 1 SB on the flop and *maybe* get 5-8 BB on the turn/river if you connect.

Yes, time to stop doing that then.

Plenty more hands to practice that while clearing the Party bonus.
