Dealt to Hero A♠ K♦

UTG raises to $2, fold, BTN raises to $7, fold, Hero raises to $18, UTG calls $16, fold

FLOP ($43.50) T♥ 2♥ 5♦

Hero checks, UTG bets $21.50, Hero raises to $82 (AI)

villain: 40/25 - ~40 hands

Is this a good play without reads on the opponent (fish)? A fairly loose fish should have a decent amount of broadways that misses this board, also if he happens to have a onepair hand (at least without Ax/Kx) we will have around ~26% equity if we get called.

I am aware that by going for c/R with the intention of "bluffing" him off overcards that missed this board, we are essentially turning our hand into a bluff. But still, going for a c/C without reads sucks.

Then there is ofc the easy way out and just cbet, or just c/fold :)

Thoughts?

Nh imo.
It's not only about getting better hands to fold, it's about making him fold when he has too much equity to do so.
Here he needs 30% to call and even with QJ has 25%, so we're quite happy when he b/folds it.
