Default Grrr.... mid-high pairs in the 22s

I run into this situation a lot ... sometimes I know what I'm doing... other times I feel slightly confused.

Only in the second orbit (17 hands), don't know much about UTG. He's played three hands. K10o and A6s were shown

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t30 (8 handed) converter

UTG (t1750)
UTG+1 (t1165)
MP1 (t1200)
MP2 (t1440)
Hero (t2795)
Button (t990)
SB (t1720)
BB (t2440)

Preflop: Hero is CO with J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
[i]This for all intents of this discussion could be Queens or Jacks, or 10s. I pretty much have the same issues with all three when that Ace flops[i]

UTG calls t30, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t150</font>, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, UTG calls t120.

Flop: (t345) 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">UTG bets t300</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t840</font>, <font color="#CC3333">UTG raises to t1600</font>, Hero...


<font color="white"> Hero folds. UTG collected (2025) BOooOoooooo

</font>

The worst of all is when you have kings and that Ace comes and you bet out and get raised, you just know you have to lay it down. I think the same thing applies in this case, even worse this looks like he has A-7 or A-6. As much as it hurts to fold it's a play you have to make in cases like this.

D'OH... nm... sorry for the 'sorta' duplicate post... (attachment to high pairs - leak?) ...
(though this is slightly different because of the PF limp and position)
