Looks good to me. Hopefully villian doesn't have a 2! I don't think he would limp UTG with one though. Unless he has A2s which is possible. I think if he had a 2 he would push the flop. I'm thinking he had a 10. Although it is possible he limped an overpair looking to reraise preflop.

Generally I dont raise flops like this multiway; you should definetly not be playing this huge of a pot with your hand. I doubt your good here.

I think checking behind on the turn would make a lot of sense. Villain probably doesn't have a flush draw here with how he played it. Your hand isn't that strong so getting c/r sucks. The problem with checking behind is that you're likely to be facing an all-in bet on the river and you have to figure out what to do then. But at least you give yourself a chance to run down a 2 or an over pair if you're behind.

If you're going to bet, why not bet the pot and put villain all-in. Force him to make the decision.

I don't think you're good here very often and you're only getting 5:1 on your call. If you're not good you don't have odds to get there.

I think the correct play is a fold here unless we know something about villain that tells us he's crazy enough to c/r all-in with a flush draw on the turn on a paired board.

Isn't there a "theorem" on this board that says if your top pair gets raised on the turn you're no good?

Villian has says he had a good hand by his lead on the flop, his call of your raise, and then his checkraise. I think we have to give him credit here and fold.

Thoughts?

Baluga theorem does not apply when villain has a decision where he can only push or fold. e.g., pot is 60 and he has 70 behind, you bet 40. Leaving himself with 30 into a pot of 140 is too stupid, so he raises or folds with worse hands.
