SB was 12/4/3 over 99 hands. Other villian was new to the table but seemed pretty solid. I felt he would also call if I called, but I wasn't too worried about him being on a better draw than me.

Does anyone like a 4bet on the flop? A smoothcall? The minbet/minraise kinda put me off on what to do.
Does anyone like a fold on the turn?
My read was obviously a monster from UTG, most likely a set, so after the flop I felt I was behind but not by much, so I didn't feel the J helped me at all. SB seemed hard to put on a hand, but I didn't feel like he was that strong.

Raise PF.

Normally I would like a push on the flop but UTG's line looks very strong so I don't think there is enough fold equity here to make a push that great so I just call.

I call the turn because since UTG open limped PF and then min raise/3-bet the flop he seems like a donk so he would probably call a river bet with whatever he has even if an obvious flush/straight comes.

After UTG has raised two times, your FE is pretty small. I think if you were drawing to the nut flush, you could just smoothcall and get SB to join the ride. But if SB is drawing to the nut or K-high flush, you are screwed . And it's a possibility given his actions.

So I'd like a 4bet to like $4 after UTG's raise to $1.6 and trying to get it all in on the flop. You have a nice number of outs and there's some dead money, go for it.

Waiting to hear more thoughts on this one..

I didn't raise preflop because villian was so tight I was immediately on guard. Anything he was limping UTG was ahead of me already, be it a pocket pair (probably only 88+ with him) or AK/AQ. I didn't think he was folding to the raise, but I figured limping was good because I would have position with suited connectors and probably really good implied odds.
