i think you have to raise to about 15$ , he could have so many hands u beat ex: ak with the ace of hearts, over pair, ect..

I would raise to ~$20 (roughly pot size), and be prepared to call a shove.

A pot sized bet would be about 25-30, leaving you just 10-15 behind. I might be inclined to just push with your stack size. You likely to get someone with AhAx or KhKx to come along for the ride.

If we raised to $20 and got a caller and the turn was a heart.. We have roughly $19 behind us.. Do we call a shove?

Pot's offering 3.9 : 1 on our 3.4 : 1 draw to a boat.

Yup, pot it and pray for a fourth 8 if they call.

EDIT: Didn't see that would leave him with a little over $10. Might just push then and hope to take it down. You're still in pretty good shape to take it down.

? You want a call, the only hand that has you crushed is a made flush, if someone calls here with Ah or Kh, be happy

SB has more than likely an over pair, maybe AKo or AKs.
If you think he calls your shove with the naked Ah than shove, if he calls your shove with an overpair and no hearts then shove.
If you are beat by a fluxh I think you have to lose your stack in this spot. I am really only worried here with UTG+1 who smooth called the cbet with you to act behind. If he is good he could have the flush but he wouldn't do that without the nut flush or he's a donkey. Anyway if he has it you still have outs and pretty good odds to draw to your boat.
If you don't shove and make it 15-20 your action might be killed by the fourth heart so I think it depends how many times you feel SB will call your shove and what hand you put him on.

Agreed. Worst case scenario for you is he smooth calls and the turn peels a heart.
