I have doubled this player before a couple of hands. He has stacked with K3s flush draw on flop vs my JJ and has hit a K on river. After has play very few hands in the period of 15-20 hands. So i bet on flop vs so many players because it is limped pot and i do not expect a lot of Ax, but now looking at the hand i have no call on river. There is nothing that i can beat and that would make a bet 2/3 pot bet. What do you think about the hand ?

Yep, I dont think u can call this.
Everything that is betting for value has u beat. U can argue that ur check on turn increases the number of bluffs betting on river... but I have my doubts if that is enough to make a call correct.

I would normal isolate the limpers here by a 4x raise. This way you have the initiative in the hand.
Only problem is that you need to call a shove of the BB.

Cheers,

Afulibador - yes, i agree with you. That is another leak from me to call in this kind of spots. No call here for sure.
SDK1987 - as i said in previous hand, this tournament is in PKR and i expect a lot of players to call my raise there. So i prefer to overlimp this kind of suited A

And it does great in a multiway pot, btw. The thing is just that: dont let the ace take u so far from what u ve planned.

I wouldn’t mind to play a bigger pot in position anyway. Then it’s less likely you play 5 ways like now.
Out of position I would call as well.

Position really is an advantage. But if everybody ll call hero's raise... ll be hard get rid of all the villains posflop, imo.

That’s right, but I don’t think it’s too likely that all players including the blinds will call.
I expect it will go 3 ways or even HU more often.
