wouldn´t AK or AQ definately value bet the river ?
i would fold the turn but i´m not sure ^^


Hard to say without stats. Do you really play without them?
If he is unknown I put him on a tighter range than a PS.com TAG.
At least one of the others has a flushdraw.

AQo+, AQs+ (maybe AJs+), TT+ (Maybe only JJ+)

I don't have a calculation program here so I try it by hand:

2 outs against: AQo+, AQs+, JJ-KK
4 outs against: TT
0 outs against: AA

So you have around 2 outs so I fold the flop.

If you hit you don't know if you are ahead and often you pay a better hand If you improve so the implied odds should be negative.
If you hit on the turn you can still lose if a flush arrives on the river so there are a lot reversed implied odds as well.

To be honest I think I would call it as well while playing but afterwards I think a fold should be the better decision. :)

If UTG is way looser then your play should be fine. (Except that you should valuebet the river then.)
