$2.25 NL HE: Checking reads
I basically just want to check my read on this with the group. We are deep, about 30 or so away from the money. I think I may have played this fairly poorly. UTG is from Romania if that helps any. I just got moved to the table - no reads.
Stacks:
* SB with 10675
* BB with 4670
* UTG with 9395
* UTG+1 with 22375
* MP1 with 9895
* MP2 with 6009
* CO with 12640
* BTN with 13451
Blinds:
Site: full tilt poker
* * Dealt to CO:A♣ J♥
* * Sklansky group 4
Preflop:
* * UTG calls [240]
* * 3 players fold.
* * Hero raises to 720 <-- standard raise.
* * 1 players fold.
* * SB calls [600] <-- unexpected call
* * 1 players fold.
* * UTG calls [480] <-- expected call
* * Total folds this street: 5
* * Potsize: 2400
Flop:
* * 2♥ 3♦ K♣
* * SB checks
* * UTG bets [240] <-- slowplaying kings? Aces?
* * Hero raises to 2,160 <-- Went pot-size to force the issue and get a read. This might have been bad...
* * 1 players fold. <-- SB folded (as expected)
* * UTG calls [1,920] <-- yep, he's got a hand.
* * Total folds this street: 1
* * Potsize: 6720
Turn:
* * J♦
* * UTG bets [240] <-- He's just playin' me now.
* * Hero calls [240] <-- Looking for help...
* * Potsize: 7200
River:
* * 10♣
* * UTG bets [1,200]
Looking at that river bet, I think he's trying to get value out of a big pair KK, or even two pair at this point. (K 10?)
I don't think there's any way I'm going to bluff him off the hand after he called my large bet on the flop.
Thoughts? Other than I should have play WA/WB on the flop and tried to minimize my exposure?

EDIT: After watching villian while typing this - he does a LOT of open limping and plays a LOT of hands loose.
