Folding preflop sucks.

Postflop play is fine given the proper read.

It's worth noticing that he raised UTG. This makes it less likely that he has K-high (KQ is possible, K9s maybe), and as others have mentioned, if he makes it to the river with A-high, he is probably not folding.

I fold this preflop, too.

Cmon bert sucks? Were not suited were not connected and were up against an assumed average UTG raisor. The game being 5 handed helps but not all that much. I won't claim its unprofitable, but playing this heads up w/o any read isnt a no brainer in my book.

Post flop play looks just fine to me, I fail to see a good reason to play this board passively.

i like your play on all streets given any kind of a read that this guy can make a fold. nh

Re: Semibluff to full bluff...
 

if you want to bluff/semi-bluff him off this pot, and you think he's able to fold..I think you have to be more aggressive. A line like c/c the flop, c/r turn, then lead the river might work. But what i would do is...

fold preflop. But since you didn't...

c/c flop, c/c turn, c/f river UI.
