Dealt to Hero 7♦ 7♥

fold, fold, fold, fold, fold, Hero raises to $120, fold, BB calls $80

FLOP ($260) J♥ 7♠ 4♥

BB checks, Hero bets $170, BB calls $170

TURN ($600) J♥ 7♠ 4♥ 8♥

BB checks, Hero bets $300, BB calls $300

RIVER ($1,200) J♥ 7♠ 4♥ 8♥ A♥

BB checks, Hero checks

BB is unknown. If he had a flush draw on the flop with something like Ax or KQ, K10 I think most likely he would have check/raised all-in. So I decided to bet the turn to protect against another heart but I think it is better to go all-in on the turn instead of betting 300.

No reason to shove turn... Turn shove could be possible play if bet on flop would have been pot size.

Now in turn shoving ~1000 to pot of 600 will scare most of weaker hands out of pot. Though might induce some hero calls sometimes :)

Turn can be checked behind, but bet is ok as well, if you think that Jx will pay. It's good to bet with that flush read of yours, but villain is unknown. Many play draws in passive way.

I think you should bet higher on the turn...like 450 to make him pay for his draw and check behind river after the 4th heart or go broke on a blank

you could check behind turn and call river if there is no heart....
you spare some chips, but have no fold equity

I think you played it fine. Prolly bet a tad more on the turn, but I don't think shoving is optimal for the reasons ghaleon already mentioned.
