Default Another LRR hand

UTG in this hand is semi-loose, passive, some level of thinking. I don't think his LRR is a bluff, but I'm conflicted between pot size and my read in this hand.

2 Limpers, I raise TT from the HJ, BN calls, SB folds, BB calls, UTG raises, we all call.

5 to the flop.

752r

UTG bets, EP calls, I raise, BN folds, BB calls, UTG calls, EP calls.

4 to the Turn
Turn is a 9
UTG bets, EP folds, I'm thinking the donk is a scared QQ/JJ and raise anyway...

Plan is to fold to a 3-bet and check any river behind.

This is how I like to play these situations.

I'd be interested if anyone doesn't like the raise/fold, check behind line.

What exactly are you trying to accomplish with the turn raise?

Heads-up I'd definitely just call. But here it's worth something to fold out high cards behind you in a large pot, so I do like the raise. When 3-bet this sucks; I'm not comfortable folding, but I guess you can.

This is a typical LRR spot where they can raise speculative hands, like 98s, so I wouldn't weigh that too heavily in your decisions.

I like the play a lot if there is no chance villian will 3bet bluff you with AK or incorrectly value raise with T9s.

Because you probably have the best hand, and you want the person behind you to fold in this big pot. Your hand is also quite vulnerable.
