As usual it is very read dependent here, but i usually don't like to just give up on the turn. I'll usually throw out a half pot size bet and see where it goes, alot of the time people fold the turn when the flush card comes cause the weak hand that they are often just calling you with becomes even weaker when the flush card hits. However the river fold was probably good assuming he wasn't a chronic bluffer or anyhting.

I prefer a 2/3 pot bet on the turn, I think you would get better information on his hand than calling the same amount.

Also, you do have the A of hearts! The fact that you have the A makes a flush less likely, and even if he had one you have outs. You do both have large stacks, so if he raises strong on the turn I would fold. If he calls I would check the river and hope he checks behind, probably call a bet upto about 1/3 pot.

My goal is to get better every day. The money will come by itself.

with Ah, i'm much more inclined to lead the turn. other guy's hand range is much wider than flush draw to hand over the betting lead like that.

lead the turn for maybe 1/2 to 2/3, then probably check river..and fold to a solid bet. I just don't see Qx betting you on the river after you lead the turn
