Implied odds Q about a hand I played.

    Ok the HH is below but I wanna find out about a hand I played and if I was getting the correct implied odds to play even though I was not getting the correct pot odds to play.

    I have played about 200 hands with villan and he/she is verry tight and PFR is only 4% (yes 4%).



    - villan sitting in seat 1 with $59.85
    - no 2 sitting in seat 2 with $106.30 [Dealer]
    - no 3 sitting in seat 3 with $57.00
    - JTheViper sitting in seat 4 with $43.45
    - no5 sitting in seat 5 with $39.55

    no 1 posted the small blind - $0.25
    JTheViper posted the big blind - $0.50
    ** Dealing card to JTheViper: 10 of Spades, Jack of Spades
    no 5 folded
    Villan raised - $2.00 ( I knew that he/she had either AA/ KK/ QQ / AK)
    no 2 folded
    no 3 folded
    JTheViper called - $2.00

    Pot= $ 4.25

    ** Dealing the flop: King of Spades, Queen of Hearts, 6 of Hearts
    JTheViper checked
    Villan bet - $3.50( so he either hit a set or TPTK and I know if I hit a straight I will get all of his chips.
    JTheViper called - $3.50 (odds of 2-1)

    Pot= $11.25

    ** Dealing the turn: 3 of Spades
    JTheViper checked
    Villan bet - $8.00
    JTheViper called - $8.00 (odds of 2.3-1)

    Pot= $27.25

    ** Dealing the river: Ace of Diamonds ( 2 pair or set for sure) ( DING for me!)
    JTheViper checked
    Villan bet - $8.50
    JTheViper raised - $22.00
    Villan raised - $35.50
    JTheViper went all-in - $8.45


    Because I was 99% sure that if I hot I could get all his chips if I hit doe this make it a correct decision?

    Usually I am very tight when calling draws so I would never play like this if I wasnt sure of players holdings.

    You should fold preflop, if this guy is very tight you don't have implied odds to play the hand out of position. Flop is fine. You do have something planned if a heart comes, don't you? Turn is also fine, you have a huge draw now so it doesn't really matter what range your opponent has. I would just open push the river, he won't fold.

    I've got no problem with the preflop call. On the river though I don't think you can get paid off often enough to justify the call on the turn since a spade is likely to kill any action and I'm surprised you got paid off so well when the Ace landed. A non-spade 9 is really the only card where you can be confident of getting the implied odds you are looking for.

    preflop is probably a losing call. On the turn you have so many outs a fold would be awfull.

    I don't think you need any implied odds to call the turn, you are getting better than 2 to 1 and you have a lot of outs. Runner runner spades aren't exactly frightening here either for villain, and an ace could well give hero 2 pair, so villain will be paying him off with top 2 or a set. If anything an A is a less scary card for villain than a 9.
