Scary flush on paired board, 3/6 live

[DeathDonkey]

3/6 live full kill, great typical game. 4 limpers and I raise A /images/graemlins/heart.gif9 /images/graemlins/heart.gif on the button, BB and everyone calls, 6 to the flop.

Flop is 5 /images/graemlins/heart.gif7 /images/graemlins/heart.gif5 /images/graemlins/spade.gif checked to me and I bet, BB checkraises. BB is a loose passive woman who actually can be a bit aggressive in spots. She is ok. Now UTG check / 3 bets ******* Warning: This is not a drill, he has at least a 5 here. Everyone else folds, I semi coldcall, BB caps, we both call.

Turn is the interesting 8 /images/graemlins/heart.gif BB bets, UTG raises, I hesitate and then 3 bet cold and they both call.

River is K /images/graemlins/spade.gif BB checks, UTG now bets and he tried to do it so delicately I feel like I am beat. I make a crying call / go for overcall, and BB overcalls.

Anyone want to play the flop or turn differently? Anyone think I'm a wuss and should raise the river?

Thanks,
DeathDonkey

I'd merely call this river too given your read. I'd also 3-bet the turn since you probably have the best hand. I like all streets.

This is tough -- I think you're three bet on the turn said you have a flush or better and UTG's lead out on the river says he's not afraid of that. Still, I hate not raising with the nut flush...

Given your read, though, calling is probably the right play.

I like the whole thing but I might cap the flop. The reason being it might get me a free look at the river and it tells me a lot more if I get bet into on the turn. It also conceals my draw a little better.

I love the turn 3-bet. These gys aren't folding and only boats are capping.

The river is scawy. Getting bet into there is not fun. he's daring you to raise.

Well I kind of felt like all you guys in that there wasn't much I could do once I saw the flop. I would have preferred to miss though, as mr. stop n go flopped a boat with 77.
