I dont like calling , even more after BB reraises. We may be blocking FD, but we will have a difficult decision even in Turn with a heart due to prrevious aggression, also being OOP and only capable of get it in with 2 outs. OTF if we call , there is BTN left which may reraise.

"Should I fold this on the flop ? "

I would. Especially since 2 players have shown an interest in the pot and you block nfd, tho, tbh i'd probably fold even if i didn't block nfd since i believe BB would just call with a FD/Kx on that board. Qx is BB's most likely hand imo.

There are so many times I feel like I would've folded in this hand that I'm like halfway to feeling I should fold AA preflop (j/k).

First thought was - fold flop. Then I saw the small sizing used by BU. So I could have called... probably ending up folding the turn if BB... but it is better to just fold flop.

By calling flop you`ll have to fold a lot on later streets, or you get your BDFD or BDSD and pay off even more money.

Folding Flop as played would have been fine.

Very few Turns will improve your hand (only two?). You got basically the best card possible on the Turn and you're still drawing super thin if behind. You may be dead to the Jh.

Question: what was your thought process when you called the Turn?

My thought process was that I had 11 outs (2 A + 9 heart) to improve and almost the pot odds to call. But I think the mistake was to not fold otf..

I think you played it fine. we know he has trips but the board just ran out where you increased your equity. I think it is one of those hands after you say yeah should have folded but hard to fold on drawing to the nuts. Pot odds were marginal but the gambler in you wanted to stack him. No big deal move on. That's poker.
