A-K and getting owned - Turbo SNG
I'd like a little advice with this hand. It's pretty early in a 10-man Turbo Sng $3.40. I raise A-K from middle position to make sure I can isolate if necessary. That's why I raise 5x instead of 3x. I'm pretty sure I'll at least get the limper to call, which is what happened. His call makes me think he's on a decent but not great hand, like PP or AQ-A10, maybe even KQ-K10.

Flop: (t345) 2 , J , 4 (2 players)
UTG checks, Hero bets t300, UTG calls t300
After the flop, his check seems weak to me. I don't think he checks with a hand like A-J or K-J. I would expect him to raise to protect against the two hearts. He might even do that with trips. When he calls, I'm thinking he's on a draw, most likely hearts in my opinion, but possibly A-3, or A-5. Really hard to say this early with some of these players.
Turn: (t945) Q (2 players)
UTG bets t360, Hero calls t360
The turn has me slightly confused. His raise makes me think he hit a pair of Queens. It's certainly in his range I've put him on. But after consideration, I decide to call and see what the River brings. I've got maybe 6 to 9 outs, plus I might still be ahead.
River: (t1665) Q (2 players)
UTG bets t620 (All-In), Hero???
Now I'm lost. I'm pretty convinced he had a Queen and hit the jackpot. Does anyone think differently? Should this be an easy fold?
