what hands do you think SB will bet into a pre-flop raiser with, and then 3-bet? Are you ahead of enough of them for this cap to be a good play?

Again, SB is betting in to you after you cap the flop, and you still think TPTK is good? At this point (him betting into you), I think you need to consider two-pair or a flopped set as possible holdings.

I would raise here also, hoping not to get 3-bet. If you're lucky, you just beat JT; from how this has been played, I think you're behind 44 or TT (believing that SB would re-raise preflop w/ JJ, QQ, or KK)

If you have no notes/reads on SB:

Raise the flop, call a 3-bet.
Call the turn.
Raise the river, call a 3-bet.

PF: fine.
Flop: Call the 3-bet - see below.
Turn: Check-call.
River: fine.

Think about the sorts of hands someone would CC an UTG raise PF with, and then go nuts with on that flop. JT is and 80% probablility, I'd say, but reads would be helpful. The fact that the opponent is on the SB might loosen his requirements somewhat to make things like T9 or J9 possible, but even then JT is still the favorite.

this is exactly what Entity said, but I like the flop raise... it isn't until the 3-bet that I think you need to worry (if for some reason I had called a PF raise with QJ or KJ, I'd bet into the raiser with this flop).

But yeah, call the 3-bet on the flop, call the turn, then raise the river (and call a 3-bet).

I actually like the flop cap. I do think you have to just call the turn though, and yes, raise the river.
