Are we ever beating anything on the turn? What do we think Villains range is? Do we check it back here instead of betting? Or bet to make xH hands pay?

This was a friends hand (hence the handwrote HH). Thanks for the feedback

What do we do as played?

The check call looks very much like a FD to me so agree check the turn but he has bigger pairs and possibly 55/66/77/88 in his range but almost no nines I would say.  As played it is a pretty easy fold I think.....even if you assume that he is as likely to have the small pairs as the other combos it isn't a big enough part of his range to make the call profitable.

Muck quickly.

What are ppls thoughts on 3balling pre? Always checking the turn here, easy fold  as played though.

What is heros position? Or am I being retarded, reads on UTG? 3b/calling can't be terrible unless he's a nit.

i mean he's utg without reads i doubt he's opening a super wide range or anything

UTG has been fairly active. We're UTG+2.
