  2. Try and save that bet on the end, with two in the pot the whole way one of them almost has to be on a draw, and with a str8 so easy on that board, (any 6 makes a str8) I wouldnt bet for value there, sure you win a bet from the guy with AQ but Mary only calls you if ur beat. I wouldve guessed the heart flush draw Chinese mary represented ace x of hearts to me (she didnt have it and probably doesnt know what the hell shes doing judging from her call on the flop). Anyways I wouldn't value bet at the end with two in the pot and a scary board with a straight easy and a flush possible, my read wouldve been wrong (str8 instead of flush) but i still wouldve saved a bet.
