I flopped top pair with the nut flush draw. SB is Loose-Passive, MP is nitty with VP$IP in low teens. Did I play the flop and the turn right? Be honest, but kind.

Flop: ($5) , , (3 players)
SB bets $1.50, Hero calls $1.50, MP calls $1.50

ATo isn't in my UTG opening range and i suggest u to don't play it UTG. Luckily you've gin'd the flop and you should be getting your money in here. Start off by raising BBs gay bet, then bet turn and check or bet riv depending on what type of riv card falls and how much of a station u think BB is.

You've made a mess of this hand really. You need to raise flop...or even the turn, you've flopped a premium hand and there is no reason to play it so passively.

It's 5-handed so raising ATo here is fine/standard.

Your hand is very strong on this flop, so raise it up! (I probably make it $6 or more here)
Bet turn for value.

I rarely open ATo UTG even 5 handed.

As played, you def wanna raise the frop, before ur equity drops significantly on non-diamond turns plus you´re ahead of SB quite often. Dont really know what MP is doing there, but you can risk driving him out, since he´s unlikely to pay off a four diamond board anyway

You guys are probably right... and here's why I got all confused and played nonstandard. Both villains are passive (one loose, one tight) and I thought they might be badly playing things like sets or overpairs.

Or a weak flush draw.

I felt they were both either folding to a reraise or way ahead of me, hence my passive line.

Poker is easy, it's winning at poker that's hard.

definitely raise flop, as played raise turn, your nearly always ahead looking at his bet sizing, I also raise a10 off utg though it's fine to fold.
