Re: 30/60 QTs
It is much more obvious that the button has nothing then the utg player. The utg player could have A high which would be way good in this situation. The chance that utg has the jack is higher then the button having one, given the way it played out.
Betting out might work, but there is a lot of players in the pot. When all the players between utg and button check again and then both blinds fold the relative strength of utg's hand has gone up greatly. None of the blinds slowplayed the boat and none of the 3! players between you and the button has a pair and probably not even ace high.
How can you say that a checkraise will allways be tested. How can he test the utg when he doesn't have anything and there is nothing he can represent with his betting pattern. Your opponent has to be weak/tight and non thinking for it to be correct to keep playing in that spot.
