 PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.50 BB (9 handed) Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

UTG ($45.35)
UTG+1 ($82.50)
MP1 ($26.95)
MP2 ($27.80)
MP3 ($48)
CO ($62.15)
Hero ($50)
SB ($53.65)
BB ($68.95)

Preflop: Hero is Button with K, A.
UTG calls $0.50, 1 fold, MP1 calls $0.50, 3 folds, Hero raises to $3, 2 folds, UTG calls $2.50, MP1 folds.

Flop: ($7.25) K, J, 6 (2 players)
UTG checks, Hero checks.

Turn: ($7.25) A (2 players)
UTG bets $5, Hero calls $5.

River: ($17.25) 3 (2 players)
UTG bets $7.5, Hero calls $7.50.

Final Pot: $32.25

UTG was a passive nit, like 20/4 over a small sample, but hugely nitty postflop. I saw him flop flush and check it down til the river. The main reason I decided to play it like this was because he insta called preflop, then proceeded to time bank 30 seconds before checking the flop. There is no way he is multi-tabling so he didn't just time out. Should I still bet this flizzop?

edit - turn and river bets insta

i raise the river for value honestly. Probably a worse 2 pair at best.

Smithers, use the amnesia ray.
You mean the revolver, sir?
Precisely.

 If you want to raise the river why not raise the turn?

Just cos he's not very aggro doesn't mean that he isn't calling with a wide range.

For god sakes, raise the river. It's not like you're going to call if he shoves over.
