Hand converted with online PokerStrategy.com hand converter:

Play hand

$0.01/$0.02 No-Limit Hold'em (9 handed)

Known players:
[tg]UTG2$4.13:///////;MP1$1.84:///////;MP2$2.32:///////;MP3$2.14:///////;CO$1.61:///////;BU$1.41:///////;SB$5.08:///////;BB(Hero)$4.82:///////;UTG1$1.25:///////;[/tg]

Preflop: Hero is BB with 5:c, K:h.
UTG1 folds, UTG2 calls $0.02, 3 folds, CO calls $0.02, 2 folds, Hero checks.

Flop: ($0.07) K:s, 5:h, J:h (3 players)
Hero bets $0.07, UTG2 raises to $0.20, CO folds, Hero raises to $0.60, UTG2 calls $0.40.

should call? or trying to going broke is fine?

Turn: ($1.27) 3:s (2 players)
Hero bets $0.63, UTG2 calls $0.63.

River: ($2.53) 7:d (2 players)
Hero bets $0.63, UTG2 calls $0.63.

Should play c/c or even c/f turn or river? or just keep betting?

Hello,

Flop ain't really a spot where I would like to go broke. I don't mind just Calling his raise and reevaluate turn.

Best regards,

Hi,

I don't think 3betting out of position is horrible even deep, but whether he's good or bad bloating the pot out of position with a hand that looks a lot better than it actually is (because our opponent often has many outs against us) is usually not going to be a good idea, especially if our opponent is very aggressive and thus able to put a ton of pressure on us in position.

So i'd call and either donk out a blank turn or check/call it depending on how often i think UTG2 continues to bet draws there and how likely he is to raise a donk with them.

As played i'd bet ~$0.85 on the turn and either check/call or make a small blockbet depends on whether i skew his range more toward busted draws or KQ type of stuff.

Hope it helps.
