UTG has pairs 95% and AA/KK slowplay 4% random hand 1%
easy to play against. we're just thinking about bb here
with a gutter and 2 overs, cbet is fine here as we can ignore UTG and treat it more like a HU pot vs. BB... plus the fact that BB is gonna treat our bet as being stronger usually because its multiway, not realizing we basically can discount the EP limper
also are you sure you know what you are saying about a float? A float is when someone calls without presumbably the best hand to take it away on a later st., a lot of the hands (e.g. Ax) would not be floating here. also most people at your stake aren't floating to float... if they call with just say overs they are usually a fish looking to spike (these guys have obvious stats like high-medium pf vpip, lowishfold to flop bet and high fold to 2x)
