Re: So I hit my pair, now what?
I think that you have a choice between betting the turn, or attempting a check-raise.
I think that I would prefer to bet the turn. Then if UTG raised again, I would call down in case he was overplaying a weaker pair. You would also have outs against 2 pair.
I think that check raising the turn might scare UTG off if he had a weaker hand than yours. Also check/raising would be expensive if you were behind to a better hand like a set.
