My read on UTG is he's kind of an old fashioned TAGfish. He's pretty neutral post flop. I don't think he's out of line aggressive, or too passive but I don't really know he he plays Jx or stuff like TT/99 in this spot. I doubt he has AA/KK very often due to how deep we are and how unlikely it is that he didn't 4bet pre.

With him IMO being a bad reg, he might be capable of raising 'to find out' where he is with the hands mentioned above but whatever he's doing and why he's doing it, it's putting me in a tough spot.

Given your read I don't think I'm folding here, given you last line I quite like a call and calling down here.

Im just bet folding here. If our betting range for value is Jx+ I think this is the worst hand to continue with since you block the most likely draws/bluffs QT KQ. Its much better for us to continue with AJ and KK AA and then you have your range protected (not folding more than 50%).

Think it gets less likely that he bluffs here too when he has a player behind.

Crying fold for me this time. If I knew villain was more aggro or tricky then it might be different obviously, but not this time and I'd be surprised to see Jx and even more surprised, a draw at showdown.
