Dont raise preflop. thats all I got so far. When utg limps, he is usually fairly strong and would have decent Ax hands. Everything else seems ok, maybe you could check the turn sometimes depending on his flop tendencies etc.

An EP limp seen as strong? Thats a new one on me. Yes I use to limp/re-raise with premium pairs but I grew out of that an now always raise the same with AA or K6o to steal blinds.

I considered checking the turn for pot control but the flop there was a flush draw possible. I guess it wasn't such cause for alarm as a straight draw.

i would make it 4x preflop instead of 5x. im probly checking the turn sometimes depending on how loose passive he is. but yeh definantly folding that river, not going to be a profitable call i dont think.
