This spot kind of sucks, because he isn't bluffing a lot and I don't think he's value betting this big with less than a flush.

looks like a fold to me

Definitely sucks a whole lot, but I would say it's an easy fold. He is never doing this with a weaker hand, let atlone have a bluff range in this spot.

Stats suggests he is tight. These players are less likely to take the slowplay (flop and) turn, then donk river line. If villain were loose-passive, I would call assuming that this is often enough a weirdly played 7 or a flopped straight, although that might be a mistake.

Against this guy, we can fold (and cry), I think. But as the flush must have hit him backdoor, it is not so clear, we fold out some of his hearts with our c-bet.

Btw, could bet bigger on flop.
