He 3bet pre and c/f 854ss, no further reads to this point.

I turn some equity with weak hearts and still have the gutshot. Perceived the Q hits me more than him, but I wonder if his flop calling range isn't too strong to barrel again.
I don't think he calls bare 9s too often, mostly he has Ax or 245 I guess. The only 9s he might call are probably connected 9s such as 89TJ with two backdoorflushdraws, but these combos are rare and he probably folds them on the flop anyway. Does he have an Ace without 2pair or a strong kicker often enough and does he fold it often enough for me to make this a profitable barrel? Do you barrel blank rivers?

That said, I think the 2 barrel is fine here. It's certainly thin, but I think it works often enough to show a small profit. I wouldn't fire 3 though unless you hit one of your off suit deuces. All other cards I'm pretty much giving up on the river. Your flush if it hits, while nice, is still just a bluff catcher.
Notice though, that you are taking a very weak hand to the turn. This hand and board run out would prefer to play a small pot, but because of the 3bet and your flop cbet this doesn't happen. If you do this 1 out of 10 times and the rest of the time you have a strong hand, it still works. But if you do this too often it will be a losing play. It would be kinda gross to face a turn raise here, and even a turn call puts you in a bad spot.
Edit: I misread the positions when first posting, changed it now.
Thanks guys!
