Fair point Java, but I think UTG is wide enough from the straddle that we're big favorites and should just raise it up here pretty big. I think UTG straddler or BTN would have re-popped it preflop if they had many of the nutted Adxd hands and might have 3b their TT preflop too.
UTG has xr and I feel he would have fast-played his sets and gin-straights mw on this ddx board. Janda and all the recent book-writing gurus suggest playing a sfd like it's a made hand in these situations and I agree with their logic.
I'm raising the pot (at least) to iso UTG rather than pricing in the BTN with this call. I'm not folding to UTG or BTN either given that they can be so wide here so I suppose I'm going all the way.
