    Hero ($55.70)

    Button ($27.10)
    SB ($18)
    BB ($13.40)

    Preflop: Hero is UTG with , .
    Hero raises to $1, 2 folds, SB calls $0.90, 1 fold.

    Flop: ($2.25) , , (2 players)

    personally I would check to keep the pot small
    1. Get a seat to their right
    2. Steal blinds at will
    3. ...
    4. Profit

    I can see checking one of the remaining two streets, but I would bet this turn personally. There are all kinds of hands that lead out this flop and call a 3 bet. Some of them are draws you want to price out. You don't want to lose value from AK/AJ/A6/AT.

    You can then check behind on a bad river, or bet for value as you see fit.

    Why are you trying to keep the pot small with a monster hand here? On the turn i bet about $7 and value betting a non K or T river. Im not worried if another heart comes either, i think its a leak to shut down and not value bet just because a possible flush comes, especially a backdoor.
