Looks fine on all streets, I play it the same, although you might want to cap the flop with your overpair and strong flush draw.

Hey rob,

I would not cap the river. When UTG 3-bets the river my mind goes striaght to either AA or AK clubs and I just call. I like your play on all other streets.

Welcome to the forums.

I agree, he's bet both pre and post-flop at every opportunity. AA is a real possibility or AKc.

Welcome to the land of 2+2, where everyone is a winner.

Looks good.

Cap the flop if you think theres a chance the BB will fold to your reraise. From his VPIP, it looks highly unlikely, so just call the 3-bet.

Call the 3-bet down on the river.

36 PFR? Quite clearly UTG flopped a big flush here.

Wow. Make a note on BB for future play. I can honestly say that is the first time I've seen someone cold-call a cap pre-flop. And doing so with his hand is amazing.

EDIT: Damn. Another misread. BB cold-called 2 more before it got capped. Still worthy of a note, though.
