    call on the turn.
    i like raising the flop here because opp may put you on tp type hand and not the heart draw.
    Youre also in position.
    If you hit (and i cant see the flush draw being no good) i think you make enough from extra bets on the river.

    Call the turn at least, he has a boat like never and your overcard might be good as well.

    Flop I like, turn Id call, in your edited hand the river fold is pretty standard Id think. He has shown aggression the whole way down and probably puts you on something stronger than a flush draw [if he is a thinking player] because of the flop raise, so you arent going to push him off something on the river without a read.

    Am I the only one that would fold preflop? Its a minraise yea, but no reads have been posted and our hand really doesnt have much value. It most likely isnt going to be that cheap to draw if we do flop a draw [as shown here] and how safe are we going to feel with a pair? If we are just looking to pick up a pot by making a move thats one thing, but I dont know how much I like doing that without any reads.
