Hey,
UTG 23/20/3.8/7.2/17/220hands
RFI from UTG 12%
4b range 5.3 (11)

Best line pre? 150bb deep I guess going broke pre is still fine, but it is UTG vs BU so I think he's super polarised when he 4bets. Like KK+ & bluffs probably.
If you were to 5b what would be your sizing? I was thinking very small to make it possible for him to call his less than premium hands, but if he is as polarized as I assumed he just folds/shoves anyway.

Postflop I don't think there's much I can do, his sizing is pretty big OTF so I don't think he is bluffing too much.

Hero (BTN): $77.38 (154.8 bb)
SB: $32.19 (64.4 bb)
BB: $76.62 (153.2 bb)
UTG: $75.70 (151.4 bb)
MP: $131.19 (262.4 bb)
CO: $81.53 (163.1 bb)

Preflop: Hero is BTN with K K
UTG raises to $1.50, 2 folds, Hero raises to $4.25, 2 folds, UTG raises to $9.50, Hero calls $5.25

Flop: ($19.75) 7 J 8 (2 players)
UTG bets $10, Hero calls $10

Turn: ($39.75) A (2 players)
UTG checks, Hero checks

River: ($39.75) 8 (2 players)
UTG bets $26.50, Hero folds

Results:

Spoiler

$39.75 pot ($1.79 rake)
Final Board: 7 J 8 A 8
Hero mucked K K and lost (-$19.50 net)
UTG mucked and won $37.96 ($18.46 net)

Hi,

I think pre-flop call is fine. You can 5-bet, but that is very strong and if he shoves you likely see aces- so I like keeping in his 4-bet bluffs.

Since he should almost never 4-bet 77-JJ then I would personally prefer raising flop 22$ and playing for stacks. You can always call and evaluate turn, but if turn and river are blanks then very likely you still get stacked against aces and if he has there some showdown value (either Jx or flushdraw) I think he would mostly going to call

Checking back turn and folding to potsize bet on the river is fine.
I would very likely bet/fold myself 14-15$ and then take my free showdown

best regards,
