Was I way to passive here? Should I have raised somewhere to see where I stood? Should I have reraised the river when the 3rd heart came out? I had figured that I had about an 11% chance of getting either a 3kind or 2pair and had the implied odds to call on the flop and turn.

Spoiler:

UTG shows [A J] two pair, Aces and Sixes
HERO mucks
UTG wins the pot ($0.22) with two pair, Aces and Sixes

Seems OK and weird @ same time. Sorry if that doesn't help too much. Don't raise anywhere. If you raise, he won't call you with a worse hand, and he won't fold a better hand.

Id probably raise or fold pre, calling is ok if its unlikely someone behind will raise

Rest looks ok, never raise "to see where you are". Raise if you think he will call with worse (for value) or to make him fold better (bluff). Raising in this hand would be bad imo unless you knoww hes a complete fish, because he'll probably call with all better hands and only fold stuff you beat

I would have raised pre-flop had 2 people in early position folded instead of limped. I've been beaten too many times when I raised with a hand like that and UTG limped in with a better kicker. (Then again that was when I first started playing poker and my post flop play was beyond awful)

I don't see how you could justify raising on any street. Your hand is a bluff catcher by the river, and you got great odds to play it as such. If your hand was worse, you could try to make a bluff raise on the river, but I'd play the KT the same way without regrets.

Note that UTG is pretty weak and passive w/a mid A in early position and move on.

If you dont want to raise then fold.

youre letting too many people see this flop by just calling.

i dont like your line either, this passive, weak like will keep you at this level.

if you dont think youre getting worse hands to call if you bet, or stronger hands to fold, if you raise, then why call his bets?? does he take any other lines with Ax hands, what does he limp with utg? what hands do you beat that makes your call +ev? there are a lot of wrong answers that can be given, and only a few right ones. you need to come up with what is correct given the reads, and range you have villan on.
