What hand(s) to you put my opponent on?

The only hands a reasonable opponent caps out of posistion with PF that you have to be worried about are AA and AKs (clubs). I doubt he has either from his post flop play, therefore I bet and hope he has a hand worth calling.

Which hands would you raise and cap with UTG in this exact situation?

it all depends on the table and my read on you. KK, AKs....maybe QQ

You prefer capping with AK(s) than QQ?
I'd cap QQ here every time. I most likely cap JJ too. Is that wrong?

Like I said, it depends on my opponent. If you're playing tight I'm not capping JJ out of posistion into your PF 3 bet...what hands would you have that I'm a big favorite against?

but if you don't bet this river because you're afraid he has JJ, thats very weak tight thinking.

I think he will have QQ more than twice as often as he will have JJ here, so I bet and call a raise.

I'm not sure about twice as often, but I agree that he will have QQ more often than JJ here.

I bet, and once he called I was convinced he had Q's, which he had.
