Hi tukioppilas62

Preflop: looks fine

Postflop: What's the purpose of that turn bet? Do we have value? Can we really block bet?

As played river is a ck/fold on non hearts.

I wanted villain to just call with the queen because we still have equity with the ace of hearts if he has the queen. We have value on the turn against KJ and JT.

Villain might bet on turn with KJ, or JT to protect himself against hearts, I think check calling turn and check folding river if we dont hit the heart would be better there. Because villain is not going to bet with his worse hands on river and he still has a alot of hands that beats us after the turn in his range.

You wanted villain to call with a Qx which is a better hand than ours? Why?

What Qx does he have? Not many generally.

If anything our bet is thin value from other Jx and maybe TT but really its too thin because there are generally more better hands than worse.

Also, can you really expect a 10nl player to valuebet second pair on the overcard/flush draw? Not really. I would not.

You are right: we can't expect villain to bet any Jx hands on turn. So we should just check fold the turn if villain is betting like over 1/2 pot, but call a small bet because of the FD?
