Out of position against a coldcaller

[Your Mom]

Stars 3/6 6 Handed

I raise UTG with AJs. Button cold calls. Button is halfway decent- he has laid down to my c/r and is fairly tight. Blinds fold.

Flop comes 962, two diamonds, none of my suit. I bet, button calls.

Turn is Q, no flush yet. What's your standard play?

he cant be more than half way decent to have cold called rather than raised pre-flop

i bet unless i think i'm facing a guy who is itching to bluff raise the turn - then i usually call him down - if i think that the button will only play with good cards albeit that he didnt 3 bet and that he was capable of folding the flop i might give up, but thats rare

generally i feel better folding when my turn bet is raised than just giving up - nate the great commented the other day that you shouldnt fear betting the turn when your action if its raised is clear cut - or something like that - this is almost such a hand
