Sorry about not using the converter but here was the hand:

3/6 5 max player table

Small Blind [Kh Kc]
Big Blind [Ad Ac]
UTG [Th Qs]

UTG calls
UTG +1 calls
Button folds
SB raises
BB calls
UTG calls
UTG+1 calls

Flop [Kd Js 9s]
SB bets
BB calls
UTG calls
UTG +1 folds

Turn [9h]
SB bets
BB calls
UTG raises
SB calls
BB calls

River [As]
SB bets
BB raises
UTG calls
SB raises
BB caps
UTG calls
SB calls

Question is was it wrong for the SB to simply call the turn raise by UTG trying to keep the BB in the hand for a bigger pay off?

(In hindsight I think it actually saved me $, but was a poor play - at the time I was thinking UTG had either the str8 or caught a 9 on the turn giving him at best a weaker boat and that BB had a flush draw, when the A spades hit I thought I had him dead to rights with his raise - although I wasn't so confident when he reraised).

On the turn SB should push it, Re-raise --- get the most money in when you are ahead. The straight is gonna call and maybe even cap. The A on the river is just bad luck.

Also with a Reraise you MIGHT have a shot at having the AA fold, but I doubt it.

By the way I have LOST with 4 full houses in the last 2 days. Bad Bad Luck.
