Default Semi-Bluffing a 63/3/2.11

The UTG player is 63/3/2.11, I think he is pretty bad, but is not totally retarded. The player that is all in could have probably a flush draw / top pair or a set although I don't know much about him. I am repping a pretty massive hand here and I think that UTGs bet sizing and call look pretty weak.

He has me covered

Cryptologic
No Limit Holdem Ring game
Blinds: $2/$5
6 players
Converter

Pre-flop: (6 players) Hero is UTG+1 with 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
UTG calls, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises to $25</font>, 2 folds, SB calls, BB folds, <font color="#cc0000">UTG raises to $65</font>, Hero calls, SB calls.

Flop: K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 7[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] ($200, 3 players)
SB checks, <font color="#cc0000">UTG bets $85</font>, Hero calls, <font color="#cc0000">SB raises all-in $205.28</font>, UTG calls, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises all-in $729.8</font>.

I think I just call because I think UTG is likely to check to you on any turn

I think actually this is a pretty valid point actually.

The pot is protected so I need to hit anyway, I guess there probably isn't value in a raise. Is there a lot of value in getting Ozkan out of the hand? For instance if villain who is all in is on a flush draw, I can free up 4 outs.

I'm saying, I can see UTG folding a lot here, but you are definately behind BB, and if you hit I can see stacking UTG sometimes.

It's only $125 to call the all-in right?

but if i get him to fold it's good though? My equity increases anyway, and say he has like QQ and calls I still have pretty goodish equity? I guess since I am bluffing him out of nothing it's not worth it...
