I don't really have a problem with this bet. Your bet is only a pot sized one after all. If you are called, I think you are usually beat here, althought you may be getting action from AQ or KK. You do have outs to the heart though. You HAVE to bet something on the turn, and it's not like you're folding to a reraise anyway. You may even be getting action from a hand like KQ, with the K of hearts.

Thats rarely ever AQ or KQ for that matter at these tsakes unless a shark or good aggro just sat down.

True. Let's go with KK (with K of hearts), outside shot at AQs, and hope you're not looking at QQ.

Doesn't KK always raise the flop here?

OK, I see where you are going - smooth call with QQ, right? Can you get away from your hand?

I don't like making a habit of check/folding with 11 good outs, a possible best hand and pot behind.

No. I think your line is okay, although I might c/r flop or c/c and look to c/r ai on the turn.

If you don't reraise preflop, then your line should be fine.

Maybe a $40 bet on the turn to entice him to go all in with you (if that's your objective). Otherwise, I think your $60 bet on the turn isn't bad at all.

I actually think that given preflop action, stack sizes, etc, a raise with KK on this flop would be pretty poor by villain.

How would a flop raise by KK be worse than an AI call on the turn?

Is this because he's wa/wb, and calling the flop extracts the most from AQ, KQ, and JJ? What about the heart draw on the board?
