Default TPTK on a coordinated board and UTG leading out into me on the turn.

Local B&M 2/4 Beginner's game. What this means is that there is NO check-raising allowed.

I'm in late position with 3 limpers and raise with AKo. 1 other caller, but blinds fold and the limpers call 1 more.

Flop: K87, 8 and 7 are [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].

Checked to me, and I bet. UTG is the only one who calls.

Turn: 6 not a spade.

Now the UTG player bets into me. Now what? He's fairly passive, so this probably means he has a real hand. There is no check-raising allowed, so he needs to bet in order to get more money from me in case I check it through.

Does anyone fold here? The 6 completed several straights in which case I'm drawing dead and might complete 2 pair. A passive player wouldn't be betting unless he had me beat. Folding here seems INCREDIBLY weak to me.

On the other hand, he MAY be bluffing, though I doubt it.

Results, (though they don't really matter): <font color="white">
I decided to call the turn. He led out on the river and I called that as well.

He had K6 for turned 2 pair.
