Default TPTK on very dry board facing miniraise

Villain is 34/8 and seem pretty solid. Havent seen him miniraise anything yet.

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ Hero (6 max, 4 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx

SB ($196.12)
Hero ($543.59)
UTG ($199)
Button ($236.59)

Preflop: Hero is BB with A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. SB posts a blind of $1.
<font color="#CC3333">UTG raises to $7</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, SB (poster) calls $6, Hero calls $5.

Flop: ($21) J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
SB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $20</font>, UTG folds, <font color="#CC3333">SB raises to $40</font>.

He would reraise QQ+ pf for sure. Any thoughts?

surely he didn't call that raise with a 2...maybe A2 suited or something....tough decision...I probably call here and see what happens on the turn...you are probably ahead of something like KJ or J10.

Well QQ+ are the only hands you're really afraid of right? If you're sure he would reraise those hands pf then you should definitely play it out. A duece seems unlikely since he called a raise preflop.

On the other hand I always get worried when the weak 3rd player in the pot comes alive for a c/r.

He's obviously trying to represent the two, but the question is, is he semi-bluffing with the flush draw. I think its very possible. The problem that i see is that a 3-bet kill action against hands you beat (j, possibly 1010 or 99) and will only get hands that beat you (a 2) to call your 3 bet. On the other hand, if he is semi-bluffing with the flush draw then your giving him a free card. Im not exactly sure what the best play is here. I think best line is to call the flop and let him lead out the turn with a strong bet, then come over top depending on bet/pot size and stacks (if the turncard is a blank). I think this is the best way to extract chips out of worse hands.

What if a queen or king hits on the turn? Still come over the top? If you call you will be commited to call his push on the river if he continues hammering.

Sorry, this is what happens when you don't read the hand properly. Thought you had position. As it is, call the flop and re-evaluate on the turn. If he bets big or a club comes I am folding and probably calling the turn otherwise.
