Turn: 7h
UTG+1 checks,<font color="blue"> Villain bets </font>,<font color="red"> Hero raises </font>, UTG+1 calls,<font color="blue"> Villain calls </font>.

River: Th
UTG+1 checks,<font color="blue"> Villain checks </font>,<font color="red"> Hero bets </font>, UTG+1 folds,<font color="blue"> Villain calls </font>.

LAP means he's passive postflop. If you insist on showing down here, I would calldown after the first SnG. You have no reason to respect his preflop raises, but his SnGs on turn and river deserve some merit IMO. Just wait for a pair and then feed it to this guy.

check the river. you tried to fold UTG+1 on the turn. he has something he wants to showdown (or a draw, which you beat).

Yeah I realized this mistake right after I made it.

I tend to overplay my AKs badly, its like my brain shuts down when I'm dealt them.

Villain showed down Jd 7d for the two pair.

If this guy is passive post-flop, and he's betting into your ace-high on the turn, I let it go. The way it played out, you gotta check behind on the riv, because the only hands that call your bet will beat you.
