UTG is decent, but so short that I don't care. The other guy is a calling station donkey.

<font color="#CC3333">UTG raises to $2</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, CO calls $2, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, Hero calls $1.50.

Flop: ($6.25) 5/images/graemlins/heart.gif, 4/images/graemlins/heart.gif, 2/images/graemlins/diamond.gif <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $5</font>, UTG calls $4.20 (All-In), CO calls $5.

River action? We still have $15-20 left?

I'd make a prohibitive reraise preflop and race UTG with COs overlay.

On the river I'd check call. He could have an A or 6 here but there's just as much chance he has some rubbish that we want to give him a chance to bluff at us with.

Ace high fd + inside straight draw would make some sense. But as you stated,he's a calling station donkey, so he could basically have anything, missed flushdraw, x5(A5?). Check call maybe, or bet him all-in. You have to be like 30% of time ahead to justify this.

Raise preflop.

You definetely can't fold if you check to him on the river. You should either bet or check call. If you think he is going to bluff if you check to him, check call. If you think he'll call with a marginal hand if you bet, bet.

I probably push river against a station.

i probably push the river unless u have a read that he will bluff a missed draw on the river in which case i check call

I honestly dunno here. I feel like ur beat but the pot is too big to check and get played off your hand.

I like shoving here, if he got there this really sucks, but there are a few draws that didnt get there... and possibility of 88 99 or 77, not to mention the possiblitlity of two picture card hearts.
