Hi all!

Turn i should had to bet here? Because villain not a reg but if villain raise can i call just my 2nd nut fd or maybe sometimes J or K good. And river overbet what is the best choice, call, raise push all in or fold? Should i folded 3nd nuts flush here, especially back door flush. But if i push all in can call Q hearts flush or less?
And few stats but villain seems like passive loose player and this players when overbet most of time have monster hands. And lot of time when i post hand here suggest me better just call or fold if passive player start agro play.

I think it was well played. Flop plan was to call a raise?
I also like the turn check as a pot control move. It would be a spot where you are behind when check/raised.
River is a call and just a call. You hold the J♥: blocking other flushes that you beat. Raising to get called by a straight or the Q♥: flush is not the way. Besides, it is a polarized river bet. If he has the A high flush, so be it.

I also see nothing wrong with how you played this hand. Many times, my opponents overplay their King high or other flush to lose to my Ace high flush. I always play any AXs, so I encounter this scenario often.

Easy jam for value, lower flushes are not folded and some call with any q(k) as well

I think it's a loss of value. How often 76 or Ax of hearts call this flop? This is a backdoor after all. The nine completes every str draw, he likely has that. I am raising OTR, if he has it so be it.

I think you played the hand well considering that, on the turn, there were many combinations that had you beat too. Villain's check on the turn may have been a sign that he didn't have Q9 unless they were both hearts... on the river, we knee that they were not. I think he had KQ.

Turn would be a bet for me for sure like 40c against a fish. The river is tricky, but against a fish I would most likely shove. I expect he can over play weaker flushes and even a straight. Off course his sizing is weird.

I don't like turn bet, because fish or if just weak reg easily call 8J, 10J, 108 or 58s too.
And i agree is lost lot of value because back door flush especially higher than my really rare here. And just a cooler so i think i should had to stack off always this board.

Do you think villain play good here this overbet? Or he didn't notice the flush came and just happy hit the river. Also i don't believe villain know how i use to play.
