I think my aggression on the flop is ok, but what about the river? Is it too much of a spew? Literally just joined table and have no reads at all.

Why did you raise the flop? With two broadway cards, SB has probably hit.
As played, I just call CO's 3-bet. As you're readless it's hard to say what he has, but 3-betting here with just a K would be pretty dumb.

Try not to post UTG+3, is it that hard to wait 3 hands?
I don't see the open ender on the flop, but raise is ok, with gutshot, BDFD and 2 overs.
Second raise on river might be spew.

Re: Overcards and open ended straight draw off the flop
 

I can't see much CO would 3bet with other than the flush so why cap the river?

Flop raise is expert, capping the river is spew.

Yeah my bad... this is definitely NOT an open ended straight draw.

Re: Overcards and open ended straight draw off the flop
 

I [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] the flop raise. And I think the river cap is a lot closer than others have indicated...at these stakes, I can definitely see an unknown 3betting with just the K (or playing the board, even) often enough to maybe eke some value out of it. Maybe...nah, just call the 3bet w/o a read.

(It is just a gutshot.)

I like the flop raise to potentially shutout CO and get a free card and maybe clear some outs.

Turn is close. You are only drawing to the gutshot anymore. With that board and two preflop cold-callers TPTK rarely wins in showdown. Tight fold could be in order, especially when you move up in limits.

River:
A raise I can understand but I probably go for an overcall and fold if it comes two back, maybe even if it's a raise and overcall back to me (probably not with the big pot though).

Cap is excessive when CO is willing to 3-bet when the flush arrives.
