    I think here he calls with better and folds worse. There is a chance you fold out a low flush but that is fairly unlikely. I would not check raise here unless you have a specific read that justifies the play.

    If he is one to a flush then that is something I would be value betting and aiming to keep him in the hand. If the river is any heart, K or A then you reasses.

    I'm mainly targeting A/K of hearts, he rarely has flopped better than me, so I'm just trying to get the most money in while the draw is still out there (not busted or completed)

    I understand your idea but I think check calling is the best play here.

    By raising you give them the opportunity to shove over you with combo draws etc and put you on a rough spot. You're also taking away worse hands chance to bluff the river and potentially missing an extra street of value from a jack.

    I agree with the above - you don't get any real value from worse hands and better hands continue.

    IF you are happy with ending the hand on the turn you did good. But I think we can shave a $1 too $1.5 out of that check raise. He'll be more inclined to call with better odds.

    I vehemently disagree
