    Bet flop bigger, 340 here.

    Same turn, 650 here.

    Shove riverz if bet bigger earlier, here is tricky as 3h is a bad card for you and c/f is probz correct but aim to get it in sooner.

    flop bet is too small, as its multiway just smash the pot button, if called shove turn

    Definately bigger bet Flop..

    Pot or 1.5 times.. Any 3 bet then a decision to All in it.. (it's early stages so live to fight another round?)

    He's needing cards I would guess, so he wouldn't have you beat at this stage.


    On the play as is, He's now got the Flush, so Fold!

    Multiway pot so bet bigger.  I bet ~350 on the flop as it is a multiway pot with a two-tone board.  By betting so small you are giving draws a much better price and it is impossible for a flushdraw or OESD to make a mistake.

    If my maths is correct it sets us up for ~700 OTT and ~800AI on river

    This is interesting.  By posting "?" you are making it very clear that your check on the river was you saying "I will just press a random pretty button on this street with no plan or decision made and now you don't know what to do".  As played until this point the river was a shove.  If I had checked this river (which is exactly never) I am checking to checkfold.  The board is now 3flush so in this situation fish very rarely value bet thin.  I would expect a TPTK hand such as A7 to check back here along with overpairs such as 88, 99 and TT sometimes although they are never played this way.  Overpair just raises turn.  So you call, he shows you A2, 23, 24, 44, 77 a flush or 56 and you hate your life. 

    Had you went bet/bet/bet you would still lose but you need to win alot less often on the river to be profitable by playing this way.  ALSO, A7, 88,99,TT all still call the river but would never have bet.

    Play better :)

    Cheers for replies, Looking back at hand, bet sizing was way out,
    My plan was to check/fold the river when the heart came, but just couldn`t lay em down which is a big flaw in my game. Definately must play better.
