Had a feeling I was up against two Q or a Q and a flush draw. Anyone see a check/raise on the river?

Party Poker 2/4 Hold'em (10 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is BB with 2, K.
1 fold, UTG+1 calls, UTG+2 calls, MP1 calls, MP2 calls, 3 folds, SB completes, Hero checks.

Flop: (6 SB) Q, 5, 8 (6 players)
SB checks, Hero checks, UTG+1 bets, UTG+2 calls, MP1 raises, MP2 folds, SB folds, Hero calls, UTG+1 3-bets, UTG+2 folds, MP1 calls, Hero calls.

Turn: (8 BB) K (3 players)
Hero checks, UTG+1 bets, MP1 calls, Hero calls.

River: (11 BB) 8 (3 players)
Hero checks, UTG+1 bets, MP1 calls, Hero calls.

Final Pot: 14 BB

I'd rather raise the turn. Good chance you have the best hand and fail that there is a good chance you have the best draw.

LMAO.

Consider that against an aware oppoent not check/raising enough gives away too much information when you do check. Then again, it's online poker and not many players are paying that much attention...

why would you think QQ is a threat in an unraised pot? 88/55 seems more likely... or QsJs.

the majority of online players suck, raising from UTG gets no respect.

I think you almost have to raise this turn. You have top pair with the K-high flush draw which is a great hand. If they just call your turn raise, then you bet out the river. If they raise you back at any point, just call it down.
