KQo Hand

[PaultheS]

UTG+2 in this hand loves to call with ace high or any piece of the board. Preflop raise okay? Check the turn?

The PF raise is good, and I like your flop bet. But I doubt that you have the best hand unless UTG+2 is a total fish. There aren't any apparent draws, so he likely has A high or a pair since he is a calling station I would slow down on the turn and check.

If you're going to bet the turn, betting the river is an absolute must. It's probably the only way you'll win this hand, and getting hands like A-high and bottom pair to fold isn't out of the question -- although based on your read, maybe it's not with this particular player. By checking the river, you're almost guaranteed not to win this hand.

I'm with Pat. Given that you were heads up, you should bet the river after betting the turn and hope that he folds his A high or bottom pair.
