Villain has reasonable 6-max stats, 34/15/1.9 over 60 hands and has done nothing out of the ordinary so far.

Ultimate Bet 2/4 Hold'em (5 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx

Preflop: Hero is Button with Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
UTG raises, 1 fold, Hero 3-bets, 2 folds, UTG calls.

Flop: (7.50 SB) 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (2 players)

What's a good line here?

I think I'll call and raise the turn here, but 3betting now isn't bad.

call flop, call turn lead, raise river if no scare card has come.

Call it and raise any turn minus ace. Or king.

It's the A's, 9's, and [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]'s that worry us most.

See Preflop part of hand.

I missed the raise/3-bet as well. Originally had 9's in my post hence the edit [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Well I feel like these are my two options. Calling down sucks. I don't like waiting until the river to raise because we give away too many cheap cards on an already semi-scary board, and I don't know if unimproved overs or A9/K9 are going to bet the river for me. In general, my desire to not give away cheap cards really makes me want to raise right now.

But I feel like 3-betting this flop just screams "I have an overpair!", and that I'm going to get capped (or turn check-raised) by hands like AA/KK/99/etc. Lesser hands are just going to fold or call down (when they would've probably bet/called a blank on the turn). So either I lose some value there, or I just lose more money if I'm behind.

Still not sure, but I'm thinking the call-the-flop/raise-the-turn line looks a bit better...

What do you do if 3 bet on the turn?
