UTG calling two cold gave me the vague impression of chasing a flush since so many people chase it regardless of odds. I planned to check/call the river. Does anyone make a case for betting (folding to a raise?)

I fold on the flop.

I guess your hand was good enough to raise on the flop and lead on turn so you bet the river? I just don't know, I've never been here.

Nice turn card though...

I'm definitely not raising the flop. This is a very weak flop for you. Folding is the right call. Getting past that mistake though, I think I would bet the river.

I would fold the flop: the pot is small. If it was just the SB, I would bet the river, but with UTG there (and the way he'd played the hand), I think I check/call.
