Overcall this river?

Hmm, torn between calling and raising. While typing this out, I've waffled between the two a gazillion times.

I favor raising--seems like if UTG made anything significant (like a straight or 2 pr), he would have c/rd here, knowing MP2 would bet and CO would call, and you haven't shown any strength post-flop, maybe you have something like Ax or an underpair.

The other two I consider a raise for value, as it sounds like MP2 will happily cap with anything, and CO will call it. I think I'll win more than a third of the time against those two.

I'm not so sure I would call the turn there though. I guess I'm not really comfortable with the A outs at this point, and one of the Qs might be tainted.

Interesting hand. What did you do? How'd it come out?
