With no reads why are you raising UTG with that?

Not criticising, you're a very winning player so genuinely would like to know.

I would just fold and expect to see jotan and/or uwojames has a flush.

Then again I just play 4/180s so what do I know.

Sir, would betting the flop with impetus here
help clear up your opponent's intentions?

It seems like the last 5 posts I read were
checked flops that amounted to a tough turn
decision.
