Why are we calling the flop?
Do we think that he's going to barrel on the flop with two overs?
If so, ok I can get behind a flop call.

If that's the case, do we think that he will barrel the turn with two overs? How many of those two overs just turned into the nut hearts? How often is it an OP with a heart?

I'd just fold. Esp being OOP, but that's me.

Give up on turn. Preflop we are getting too good of implied odds to fold, but hero is nearly set mining at that point because there are not a lot of other flops that are good for a weak pair. The flop could be a c-bet with air, but also could be a semi-bluff with a flush draw or an over pair+, I would call here some of the time and fold some of the time. On the turn villain is still betting after the flush comes in, and that point hero is only beating total air. It is just too risky to continue at that point.

I just fold flop. I'd only peel this in position since you can bluff the turn if he checks to you.

Keep in mind a lot of his non-made hands have a lot of equity against you if they have hearts + overs or even 1 heart + overs. And obviously his value range crushes you.

If I'm calling a 3bet oop deep stacked, its just to set mine.

Raise flop to $125 or fold. Floating is OK as we turn cards that give us straight draws, but I like folding better than calling.

Raise>fold>call

If he has AK then a nice 2.5x raise on flop will usually fold this out, if he calls then we have the lead and he will play face up on turn. As played the turn is an easy card for him to bet again with no pair, although he is telling the story that he has an overpair

Who likes folding pre? Stacks are not deep enough to be calling a 3bet OOP to set mine

False.
Getting a solid 23:1 implied we seem to be getting great odds to set mine.
IMO.

call flop, call turn, call most blank rivers depending on sizing.

raise to 20 pre

c/f flop

his small bet on the flop is more than likely bc of the completely safe board

turn is bigger bc it got wetter

i may decide to turn my hand into a bluff here rather than call and c/r to 500 but that is super spewy

c/f flop and wait for a better spot

His line smells bluffy to me. With you calling the flop this turn card should smack your range. Why is he betting here? if he has JJ+ this is a terrible board it should be time to slow down. AK or AQ with a heart might keep barreling. The only thing that makes sense to me is 1010 AKhh or AAh.

What do we think about turning our hand into a bluff here? This should be a terrible board for V
