Unknown SB leads small on the flop

[Mr. Curious]

$500 NL
Blinds are $5/10
9 Handed

SB is an unknown. I've only been at the table for two hands.

Stacks:
SB $350
Hero $500

Hero is dealt A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] in MP2

Preflop: UTG folds, UTG+1 folds, MP1 folds, Hero raises to $40, MP3 folds, CO folds, Button folds, SB calls, BB folds

Flop: Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] (2 players)
Pot: $90

SB bets $25, Hero ... ?

I see this a lot from a hand like 10-10 trying to cheaply determine if you hit the flop. Of course it could always be a draw looking for a cheap turn card. I raise to 75-90 and probably fold to a 3-bet, which is his way of allowing you to get away cheaply, IMO.

If Villain just calls the bet make another pot sized bet on a bricked turn

that is too weak IMO, SB only has 35 BBs just raise and get allin however you can.

I raise to 110 or 115 (PSR) but 125 is fine too.

You have the best hand and he is likely drawing so lets put lots of money in the pot.

Mr Curious,

Why are you sitting w/ $500 in a NL5/10 game?

[soah]

Because it's his second hand in a $500 capped buy-in game.
