Very decent equity vs UTG's any2 range. Still, vs someone who just doesn't fold at all and even leads some turns, I probably can't use my backdoors like hearts, Q, J as effectively and am forced to play them passively, too. Am I still better off trying to buy a free river / build a pot and try to spike decent turn/river cards with a small cbet or should I just give this up? How much does BTN matter in this hand compared to a HU scenario vs UTG? He's a relatively tight and str8 forward reg and probably also widens his range because of UTG. In general however I think regs at these stakes don't adjust enough to extreme player types like UTG, so I'm not that worried about him.
