After four checks on the turn and a continuation bet from the button (flop bettor), I thought it was pretty obvious that people had squadoosh, weak draws, or ace-rag. I was still wary of scary cards like aces, jacks, and tens on the river, but the 6h could only help A6, so I bet and collected from a couple paired aces.
How did I do? In hindsight, I can't tell whether raising preflop would have helped or not. I got lucky on the turn, but the price was right. | Luckily you picked up UTG, but by check raising, you faced UTG, MP, and CO with two BBs. It's an isolating check raise, most often going to knock them out and get 1 more BB from the button. I think trying to pick up 3 BBs from the others is better. If UTG were the bettor, then you would want to check raise because UTG would bet, get called by someone else, and then you raise them both.
Been a while since I played limit though.
