You are in a bad spot when you get all of these calls plus a raise (even if the raiser has lose raising standards) seeing how you are going to be OP after the flop. I don't play A/To UTG unless the table is perfect. Loose passive.

Edit: Sorry I didn't answer your question. I raise the turn to make flush draws pay extra even though they probably still have odds to call.

Limp if you must . . . I don't like the raise here.

Why are you not raising the flop?? Trip T with an A Kicker RAISE! Since the pot is huge people will be reluctant to fold. Going for the over call is not that bad either . . .

TURN - YOU HAVE A FULL HOUSE! WOW!!!

The pot is huge already . . . if somebody has a diamond draw charge them for it. If they have a high pocket pair charge them for it. If everybody folds you take home a sweet pot . . .

I like the way you played this hand. Button seems to be tight enough that you don't want to blow him and UTG+2 out of the water. There would be nothing worse than raising the turn to see UTG+2 and button both fold, making 3 less bets than you did.

The only thing I would have done differently is not played AT offsuit UTG in the first place preflop. But nh regardless.

I fold preflop.

Raise the flop.
