I'm sure you would get action if you check here but if you check/raise you announce your hand in a 6 way pot. If you lead you don't define your hand as much. Pot is $48 so I'd bet $30 to $40 and probably right in the middle of that at $35.

If we lead for $35 here, what is our line on the turn when the 3rd heart hits? (it's an obvious lead if the 3rd heart does not hit on the turn).

I'm surprised no one has given any merit to a CR here. At a table full of tight-passives, then yes I think leading is better, but at a loose-aggressive table (or just plain bad table), I think I like a CR better. At 400NL+ where people are capable of making moves and such, I think a flop CR is not necesarilly a huge sign of strength. Say you have 8hxh or 9hTh/ThJh and check first to act. PFR bets out $35, gets one or two calls, and you CR to $150 - all in. Is a semi-bluff squeeze like this totally out of your arsenal?

Like I said before I think you need to include more info about how the table was playing Coco_Bill. I think both leading and CR'ing has its merits, but I would need more info on the table dynamic before I make a decision. As a default play I would lead $35-40 since I like to lead a wide range into the PFR.

Putting in the 3rd bet with a set > putting in the 2nd bet with a set.
