No reads on Villain. Weak turn bet I know, so the minraise didnt really tell me anything, I had no clue what he had. River bet was meant to be a blocking bet, not sure if I did it properly?? let me know.....It seemed to work because I did not want to invest anymore money into the pot, so i would have folded to a re-raise, I am guessing the only reason he did not raise me on the river was because the 3rd heart scared him.
Let me know what I did wrong and what I did right if anything.

Thanks

Yeah I say you played it fine, not really worried about anything here that raises preflop, maybe TT or JJ but I doubt it. I say its fine if your betting for value.

Edit: Wow I completely misread the hand history.

On the river it looks like he has a straight and was scared of the flush. I don't understand why you want to bet into the river when a min raise would tell me he has you beat.

JAos UTG is not a strong hand. Some poeple on these forums say to fold this hand UTG.

Other than folding preflop UTG with this hand, it looks like you're ahead here or only slightly behind.
Opponent doesn't appear to have a straight (unless he raises Q9 or 79 in his position).
Unless he's goofy (or extremely passive) he doesn't have an overpair or trips (other than possibly 88).
Looks to me like 99, KJ, AT or somesuch. His call on the river shows that he has some pair though.

Well then i guess he is extremely passive because he flipped over TT for a set. I was very confused because he flopped a set on a draw heavy board and just called my flop bet, and then min raised my turn bet when there was 2 hearts and a possible straight.
