Just check and take the showdownvalue. Your hand is too good to bluff with

What about the preflop 3-bet without a read? A bit loose given it's an UTG open?

I think the 3bet is really loose, unless you have a read about the opponent being weak/spewy. I'd bet the flop when you 3bet but check the river.

I agree with thsheriff. I would only 3-bet against CO (vacuum ranges)

agree that 3betting is too loose. this hand is easily dominated by most UTG opening ranges, if the K was an A since that improves the rank of our hand by a lot (8% from 23 to 15) but would still just call this

since you 3bet betting the flop is ok so that you don't cap your range. makes this hand easier to play and probably more +ev

river is weird because once u bet flop he has a lot of hands that beat you (A9, overpairs, 98), so now i'd say you can bet if your image is nitty but if he knows you're 3betting this wide then i'd say just take your sd value and hope he had a bare FD (which he will al ot since you don't block diamonds)

Yeah, now I see the mistake of 3b vs utg with that hand.

Thank you guys

Yeah loose 3bet, River is check behind

Think that you are trying to make TPTK and overpairs fold on this super dry board, after checking the turn. You are basically repping only 2xxx, AAxx and KKxx vs an unknown plo2 player with no history. I assume he will call you a lot with all the hands you want him to fold by bluffing here.
