Default Fold this boat?

UTG is 42.5/4.17 over 120 hands and will play any hand with an ace.
CO is 31.84/9.5 over 179 hands.

I know I probably should have reraised the flop but I figured CO likely had an ace and that I could checkraise the turn and trap UTG.

I'm mainly looking for feedback on the river. Someone has the ace right?

I hate these. UTG hasn't played this hand at all like he has an ace, so I think I call.

This is what you should take away from this hand.

This is definitely a call. And slowplaying in 6 max when you have a set and there is an A on board is almost always -EV.

No one is folding so yes a flop 3-bet is in order I believe. Also, folding the river SUCKS. Some donk is going to show you pocket 88 or a 4 plenty to make this profitable.

From what I've seen, many loose-passives will call 2 bets on the flop with ace, weak kicker, and then checkcall down so I thought between 2 opponents, it was fairly likely someone had an ace, no?

Wow, I didn't think it was that bad going for the turn checkraise, but apparently it was an awful play. Thanks for the advice guys.
