Havent played much poker lately, but on a trip to Montreal, I recently played in a cardroom.1/2 NL liveEffective StacksHero(BB)=100UTG=250SB=200Hero has 225 limpers to flop Flop- KQ9, rainbowSb checks, Hero checks, UTG bets 7 folds to SB who calls, Hero raises to 25.Thoughts: UTG was a bad player. He had very obvious tells, and I picked up one on this hand. SB was a good, tight player. I knew that he could not call my c/r, unless he had flopped a monster, which I was certain he did not. I normally don't pull too many squeeze plays, but I felt this was an easy pot to scoop. UTG calls, SB folds.Turn 10Hero....Should I even try again here?

What is your read on UTG? You said you picked up a tell. How weak do you think he is? What range do you put him on?What to do depends on your read. You have ~73 left and a pot of ~60. Unless you have KJ or JT, it's hard to believe you have the straight on the turn. Is he good enough to realise this?I am tempted to say check to him and try to get another read. You aren't fully committed to this bluff, so you can let it go if you need to.

I didnt know UTG was a calling station, as he had just sat down from a broken 2/5 game. The reason I knew he was bad, was mainly because he was a tell box. I put him on a gutshot draw, and as hard as it is to believe, he was. He had 104s, and we checked it down.
