I think there may be some value to extract with a raise on the river.
Given you ara playing IP and the turn not only helps you, but also reduces the likeliwood of villain placing a K in your hand, I think turn is ok to just call.
On the river, assuming a decent range from UTG, despite being NL2, I think you may extract from TT+, with a raise to $0.55/0.60.
If he shoves, you are possibly beaten by AK, so with 1/2 stack behind and getting 1-3 to the pot either the fold or the call are possible, depending on your "feelings" throughout the hand (given is NL2, I suppose you don't have stats).

KJo I would fold most of the time against a UTG open. You are often dominated.
As played I would consider to raise the river. Villians bet looks weak en you have trips with a decent kicker.
Off course if villian shoves you have a really nasty spot and than you need to fold.

Hello,

Very interesting hand, because postflop is exactly what we don't want to see when calling with this hand against a PFR range of UTG.
It's a fold pf, you're dominated against the vast majority of his range, think of all the different flops you're going to see and could play,
Even when you hit a TP you don't know where you stand and it's not going to be easy to materialize your equity in the show down.


Equity Win Draw
CO 61.07% 57.82% 3.25% { 66+, ATs+, A5s-A2s, KTs+, QTs+, JTs, T9s, 98s, ATo+, KJo+ }
BU 38.93% 35.68% 3.25% { KJo }
