Hero?

I am thinking the Villan likely made his flush (even with a known heart already burnt), and I should get off the Trip Aces. But could he be stealing trying to represent an Ace? Even if he has the Flush I have outs for the boat.

Next time flop quads so that you can confidently call.

How deep are you both?

The Villan's all-in bet is most of my stack. I'd have perhaps $10 left

I would fold here. To many hands beat you including AQ, AK.

I called...


...and cried when I saw the Villan's Q 7 ...


...(very) lucky for me the board paired on the River.
