UTG raises to $1.50, Hero calls $1.50, fold, fold, fold, fold

Flop: ($3.75, 2 players) 5♥ A♣ K♥
UTG bets $2.50, Hero calls $2.50

Turn: ($8.75, 2 players) T♠
UTG checks, Hero bets $5.00, UTG raises to $18.00, Hero calls $13.00

River: ($44.75, 2 players) 8♦
UTG bets $33.83 and is all-in, Hero calls $29.82 and is all-in

Villain standard reg (15% EP open). easy muck turn right? AK, 55 he bets turn. TT checks flop. river i beat nothing. In retrospect he prolly only plays AA/QJ like this. I did exclude QJs somehow from his EP range --> mistake?

Also does raising flop make any sense? I mean i cant have bluffs really.

Calling to slow play on flop seems fine since he could barrel again on turn or check call his A on turn. Raising might throw him off an A where you otherwise could have gotten value, or stopped his bluffs from continuing on the turn.

That check raise on the turn is very strong and indicates he's calling a shove so I would shove the turn. He could have many 2p plus draws there that would call and only JQ and AA that has you crushed

ok. but do u really think he c/r the turn with the non-nuts vs my pre flop and flop calling range, which is very strong obv. so u prefer shoving turn?

thx

He could do it with a hand like AK AT AQ 55 A5 for value against you. And you are ahead of his check raise for value range so you can go broke on the turn.
