Hero in highjack (203BB): dealt JcKh
Villain raise to 30c from MP (135BB): Has been playing relatively tight.
Hero Calls. 3 folds. Pot: 75c

Flop: Kd8h4h.

Villain c-bets 50c into 75c (to me felt like jj,qq, ace x, or trying to steal pot with j10, q10, etc. Dont think he/she would do this with draw). Hero calls 50c. Pot: $1.72

Turn: 9h.

Villain checks. Hero checks.

River: Qh. Have 2nd nut flush.


Villain checks. Hero bets 90c. Villain shoves all-in $13.03. Hero folds. Villain mucks and wins. Thoughts on fold?

Fold, but why don't you bet the turn?

i thought if i bet on turn and he raised me there say 3x, i would fold, which wouldn't be that bad of an outcome. If he raised he might have flush, 3 pair or set. If he called a $1 bet on turn, i get not much information, while inflating the pot. If i check, i give him a chance to bet a wet river such as the one that came (he didnt bet unfortunately), and a chance that if its a dry board i can get away with a showdown with tpmk if he checks, or a fold.

Pretty easy fold here with 4 hearts on the board. You said the villain here was pretty tight so I can't see him making this play without the Ace. However, I agree with the other post that you MUST bet the turn here. Yes, by checking you disguise your hand, but there is not much upside to that here. Any decent draw or made hand would likely call a reasonable turn bet. If the villain does not have anything, he is unlikely to improve enough to call a river bet. You need to get value from him chasing his hand. He probably had the Ace, but u gotta make him pay to get there......As played, you didn't have any choice. Just can't call without the Ace high flush. So you made the right move by folding. Good luck at the tables.
