I'd probably bet the river just in case he checked behind a better hand as by the action I'd expect us to have the best hand here quite often

I think his UTG range had hands like QJ, JT, AJ, KJ that could beat me with trips and he could also have a made flush with all his As combos. If I betted the river and he shoves I would be on a comp´licated situation and I would probalby had to fold I think
