is it really possible that people still cannot read a poker board?

also, fwiw i think the turn call is pretty standard given the implied odds but i think you might only have 6 outs for nice implied odds so it's definitely close. also i think his call with AK here after limping in is atrocious, but nh.

txredman had an infamous thread in the mh limit forum where he tried to defend his play when he didn't raise aces from the bb, so i suppose misreading a board could be expected too.

Calling the pot with eight outs on the turn, headsup, out of position? This is standard? Bleah.

What was your river plan when you called the turn?

[mgsimpleton]

i think your implied odds are too good to pass it up. if he's bluffing you'll usually get it back just on the bluff on the river and if he has a hand you're set...

What was your plan if a non straight heart came on the river?

I disagree.

I think you should fold turn. IMO people pay way too steep a price to draw to hands that can't get paid off by 1 pair or other flush draws etc etc. I think this kind of call is ONLY okay if you knew for a fact villain had a set. Villain can easily have something like 97 here or 85 and then you just paid > pot bet to draw to somethin that won't get paid off. You really only have 6 clean outs IMO.
