From nuts to fold? Cruddy river decision in ginormous pot...

[BrassMonkey]

Don't know much about UTG. BB is aggressive regular.

What do you do on the river here?

Why are you calling the flop?

As played, UTG knows you both have a K, and he's raising the river anyway. He played his hand exactly like a flush draw. I'm probalby folding the river, but I would hate to do it.

i fold the flop, and river. utg has played it exactly like a flush and theres no reason not to overcall with Kx for him u could easily have Kx of diamonds here and hes not trying to fold out a chop (he cant put u on AK unless its AKdd) 10% of the time he raises this river.

i put BB on KQ or KJ of diamonds anyways actually, does he ever not 3bet those preflop here?

My "A" game folds this flop. I rarely bring my "A" game. If you've got some respect for the UTG you may well be dead to 3 cards. With only 2 sbs invested the BB is giving you the perfect opportunity to say bye-bye.

The river is cruddy as you say. The fact that he's raising into the turn capper, and he's not just dropping in to play maniac once a month, means a tough fold.

Interesting hand.
