Default $11 How to handle under-paired board on flop

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t100 (8 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx

MP1 (t1395)
MP2 (t1820)
CO (t410)
Button (t1660)
SB (t1025)
Hero (t1455)
UTG (t1890)
UTG+1 (t3845)

Preflop: Hero is BB with Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, UTG+1 calls t100, <font color="#666666">5 folds</font>, Hero checks.

Flop: (t250) J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets t200</font>, UTG+1 calls t200.

Turn: (t650) 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets t400</font>, <font color="#CC3333">UTG+1 raises to t800</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t1155</font>, UTG+1 calls t355.

Too agro on the turn? I still feel good about this play, but am curious about anyone's else feel.

The flat call on the flop worried me about him slowplaying, but the min-raise seemed really weak. But then again... he could've just been trying to build the pot.

Thoughts?

He's clearly saying he's not afraid of those jacks. Fold to the turn raise.

Interesting, what range of hands do you put him on based on pf limp and flop call. This is where I was having a problem figuring him out.

Thanks for the response.

I can't think of one possible hand that he could have that you would be ahead of. Unless he has Q-worse kicker than 9. And he'd have to be a complete utter moron to play that like he did.

As for his range, it could be any number of things. Any J, AQ, KQ, QQ, 55, I don't know. But the point is that you aren't ahead of this range. Not by a long shot.
