Big pot - overcall or fold here?

2. UTG+1's smooth call of the flop bet indicates some weakness to me. I would raise here to guage UTG's reaction. You have top pair and are only afraid of a few hands. (AA,KK,AK). UTG+1 could be slowplaying one of these, but it's not likely.

3. You could very likely have the best hand right now. You should bet for value here based on top pair alone. The flush draw is just gravy.

Well, that's what I get for trying to quickly respond to a hand post when my co-workers are dragging me out for happy hour. Sorry about that. [img]/images/graemlins/blush.gif[/img]

(I would have raised, but UTG+1 got there first, so I called and hoped for a few more loose calls behind me)

I suppose if the table has proven to be really good about cold calling this might be okay, but I don't like relying on people behind me to call to justify my own call. I fold this preflop pretty much religiously in this situation. I feel like I'm dominated too much.
