Default KJs multiway action- doomed to payoff?

40-80 loose game

Player has raised two staight times with marginal hands. He now raises again (for the third time) UTG. UTG+1 calls, UTG+2 calls, I look at KJ of spades. I know that I will pick up at least two other caller behind me, so I call.

We go into the flop with 7 callers for a total of 14 small bets ($1,120). I'm in 5th postion to act. Flop comes 9 5spades 3spades. Orginal raiser checks, UTG+1 bets, I call, two caller behind me, UTG calls. 5 callers into the turn. Turn come a King. UTG+1 bets, I raise- fold-call-call-UTG+1 reraises- I call, fearing a set or AK. The River comes a 2 spade. Make my flush. It is checked to me. I bet-fold-checkraise by UTG (origianl raiser) the utg+1 folds (later he said he had poacket aces) I call. UTG shows AQ spades.

Okay am I destined to payoff here? Did I save a bet because the UTG check raises insted of betting his nut flush (which I would of raised) Should I have just folded before the flop? Should I start playing 40-80 monopoly? Why did pocket rockets net reraise and isolate his aces (idot). Insigt???

OK. Anyway, yes, of course you are destined to pay off with the second nut hand. Your mistake was not 3-betting the river. There's no reason to think UTG has the one hand out there that beats you. For a logical player we could rule it out right away because he should have led the flop. This guy is clearly a moron, so who knows.. But for a moron, there's even less reason to think be specifically has a suited As.
I have no idea what you're talking about re: isolating pocket rockets or something..

As a previous poster stated, I am definately going 3 bets on the river. When he caps, you call, and hope for the best.

You're likely giving him way too much credit here given your description of him. I'd 3 bet this.

The description at the beginning was of UTG. UTG+1 is an unknown (to us). That said, if he did have AK or even KQ he probably would've re-raised preflop to isolate the moron rather than coldcalling.

If you're asking this, you shouldn't be playing at this limit

Good catch. I misread it. I also blew that it was already 3 bet. For some reason I thought it was c/r'ed on the turn. I might've read that in a response and confused it. Edit: Looking back, I may have thought the river c/r was the turn.

Given that, I like the turn play calling the 3 bet.

To OP: Could you seperate the streets a little so they aren't all jammed together? Makes it a little easier to read and follow.

this is a very standard hand...UTG could be checkraising the Q high flush, you have to pay off
