That really does look uncomfortable. To overcall the river though, you have to figure BB for QQ or JJ and also for UTG+1 to have something you beat. I think you have a solid fold on the river.

PF/flop/turn perfect.
river v clear fold... why would you pay off here? how ridiculous is that?

what I want to know is how you have no real reads at a full table like that. Just seems unreasonable considering the tools available today.

what sorta overcall on the river is that?? woah man!

otherwise it's fine. you could raise the turn.

If you're planning on calling the river no matter what, you might as well semi bluff raise the turn, maybe mp will fold some hands that beats you.

fold the river. i may even consider folding the flop.

what can BB have that you beat here?

If it weren't for UTG is would be an easy call down...

Flop bet could easily be a continuation bet by BB. UTG could have a worse king, JT, JQ. You have backdoor flush and straight draws. 5 cards for two pair. (discount these to 4 outs)

If a brick falls on the turn and BB bets and UTG calls I think it's a fold.

Problem is comes when a brick falls and BB checks on the turn, UTG will often bet his worse King or A high. So you have another borderline decision. IMO this borderline decision is what makes the flop hard to play.

EDIT: forgot this was 9 handed. Flop call is very boarderline if the BB and UTG are reasonable players.

Raise the flop to see if BB 3 bet's, which may also get UTG out. If he 3 bets again OOP and leads the turn, peel that card and fold river UI. That would be too strong a play for QQ or TT there.

Not so hot on that river overcall. When I first looked at the hand, my first thought was to pop the turn. Probably what Id do.
