Its a fist pump get it in! He has AJ, AK or a set alllll day! Only thing I do different is re iso pre flop but a call isn't bad imo!

Yeah I was talking to someone else who said they could re-iso, but I wasn't really sure about it.
I was basically checking about the line anyway and see if what I did was ok.
Some combos are blocked by the board of higher flushes, and I'm guessing it's just a cooler if they show up with it.

Only thing that was mentioned is does the reg looking player choose to keep barreling so heavily here with just 2 pair?

I think so he doesn't want to check for you to check behind and a Q, 10 or 4th heart to roll off! So if he is a bad reg he prob slows down but a good reg would def bet! Especially as the fish will have any old garbage!

I think it's quite an easy I'm all in, in this particular case at least. If I'm playing to hit my flush and get it I rarely fold and I really wouldn't want to see the river pair up.

Yup, getting it in is the play I like by default in this spot. You're close enough to the top of your range to care mostly about value. You could also potentially call vs. some players given that you have position but I'd want some additional info to choose that play.

Yeah, well I was just checking it was all good. When they both ended up all in behind me I was a bit sad face but just a cooler so no worries.

Mainly checking my preflop play and seeing if all was good, or at least not a mistake.

Sheep it!

I love the fact that the Ah and Kh are out there making the amount of flushes you're beat by almost negligible. There are so many AA, KK, JJ, AK, AJ, QT out there that you will get tons of value.

I also like the preflop call. I don't like re-isolating since it looks like the player you want to play against is UTG with over 50% VPIP. MP looks like a reg and should have a fairly strong range isolating from MP. Given the choice between playing against the rec or the reg I'll take rec all day.
