Default KQ BB defense

WTF is this? I think I was in "I don't know what to do so I'll just call" mode. No good reads on villian, but he seemed ok, 32/10 after 40 hands.

PokerStars 2/4 Hold'em (6 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx

Preflop: Hero is BB with K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
[color=#666666]4 folds</font>, [color=#CC3333]SB raises</font>, [color=#CC3333]Hero 3-bets</font>, [color=#CC3333]SB caps</font>, Hero calls.

Flop: (8 SB) 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] [color=#0000FF](2 players)</font>
[color=#CC3333]SB bets</font>, Hero calls.

Turn: (5 BB) 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] [color=#0000FF](2 players)</font>
[color=#CC3333]SB bets</font>, Hero calls.

River: (7 BB) 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] [color=#0000FF](2 players)</font>
SB checks, Hero checks.

Final Pot: 7 BB

I would fold the turn. Without a read, I don't think KQ has enough showdown value vs a preflop capper, even if it is a SB/BB steal/resteal situation. At least not enough to call down in this spot. We only have overcards on the turn, so we need to be good a fair amount of the time to justify calling down.

I raise or fold this flop. In this case probably fold due to the cap PF.

I would fold this flop, your opp has shown pure aggression throughout, and for a player with 10pfr (not too conclusive due to the small hands sample) we have a heart backdoor draw, and not much else.

Your opponents hand range makes your equity in this pot very slim, and your reverse implied odds are incredibly high. Your implied odds of hitting a K or a Q are low because you may play them cautiously due to his earlier aggression.
