    Default 50NL: 2 pairs on the flop

    PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.50 BB (9 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

    MP1 ($37.90)
    MP2 ($19.75)
    MP3 ($59.15)
    CO ($11.20)
    Button ($94.80)
    SB ($43.65)
    Hero ($50)
    UTG ($56.95)
    UTG+1 ($55.80)

    Preflop: Hero is BB with J, K.
    6 folds, Button raises to $2, 1 fold, Hero calls $1.50.

    Flop: ($4.25) K, Q, J (2 players)
    Hero checks, Button bets $3, Hero raises to $9, Button raises to $26, Hero ???

    villain was 16/8/1.20. Seemed tight and I have not seen him be tricky.
    I had a story with villain. around 40 mins before he stacked me (poor play by me) where villain limpes from MP after another limper, I had QQ and raised from CO. Villain thought a bit and then called, everyone else folds. Flop came 368 rainbow, villain checks and I bet 2/3 pot, he raises 3x my bet, I call. River is 8. Villain checks after thinking a bit and I check also. River is 6. Villain goes all-in. After a while I called and he showed 86s.

    On this flop, I'm behind to some hands ...
    Would you push this flop?

    i would fold vs this player, i think we're ahead of QJ and AA only.

    Can't quite put him on a specific range because he could be playing back lightly due to thinking you are defending your blinds or something. However, if this hand gets felted then you're likely beat.

    I play for pot control here and likely see a showdown.

    That's my thoughts exactly!

    However, I also thought this was possible ...
