BB checks, <font color="CC3333">UTG+1 bets</font>, Hero calls, CO folds, BB folds.

*I don't have any reads on this guy. I don't know if I'm ahead. Should I raise to try to knock out CO and BB, and incase my hand is best?

<font color="CC3333">UTG+1 bets</font>, Hero calls.

I would have raised him on the flop and seen how he reacts on the turn. If he checks to you, you can take a free card and pray to improve.

i would probably raise the flop...if not then i would raise the turn and if don't improve try to take a free showdown by checking through on the river if checked to...

gotta raise the flop to see how much he likes his hand. you have position on him. use it to your advantage. if you are 3-bet, you are in trouble. if he only calls, you might still be behind, but hopefully you got rid of the others in the hand, so you can take a free card and get a cheap showdown. another solution is folding if you know for certain this player will not bet into a preflop raiser without a king. qq is one of those hands you just gotta release from time to time.
