this stinks. Assuming no real read I think I minraise the flop (yeah I know this forum hates that). If he checks turn I bet 1/2 pot and shut down if called (a worse hand won't lead the river after that). If he leads turn after minraise I fold.

EDIT: as played I think it's a definite fold. Well played

Well I realize the river is a clear fold.

I am more concerned about the turn. (or the flop?)

I'll play Captain Obvious here. You needed to raise the flop or turn to find out where your at. I'm just joking with you, but seriously, thats was OBV needed.

looking at this again it's not a bad idea to fold the turn. You are behind any ace that UTG would raise with when that 10 hits.
