Default Weird two pair spot in multiway limped pot

SB is a multitabling regular. He tanked for a few seconds before calling. UTG is a totally unknown new player. Thoughts on how I played the hand throughout?

Full Tilt Poker
No Limit Holdem Ring game
Blinds: $10/$20
5 players
Converter

Stack sizes:
UTG: $1649
CO: $2688
Button: $2471.50
SB: $2380
Hero: $1940

Pre-flop: (5 players) Hero is BB with J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
UTG calls, CO calls, Button folds, SB calls, Hero checks.

Flop: A[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] ($80, 4 players)

ugly fold. sb does not have you beat. AK, JJ, KK, AA would raise pre and QT would not check call the river so you almost always have him beat. And it would be really weird for UTG to have AK here and have shown no strength before river. QT is possible for him, but id call getting 3:1.

As played I think it's fine, but I'd likely have bet river myself after sb checked. Do you guys not realize that unknown people limp big hands UTG even 6-handed? I'd say his most likely hand is AA/KK and of course possibly QT as well. And no, obviously I'm not in the least worried about SB.

hmmm, AA KK is possible for UTG but how can he not protect it from random Q's and T's at all?

Not betting this river seems pretty bad.

FF --

Given all the action the river fold looks good to me. SB's preflop ranges are pretty important here, I think, because some regular types (as I understand it) have you beaten here v. occasionally and some essentially never, and there's a big difference. Anyway, I think UTG has you beaten enough that this is a fold either way.

Flop and turn both seem good, especially if you know SB well enough and play well enough that you don't need to be too worried about making decisions easier.

Blah. All that gibberish to just say "nice hand."
