    With no reads, yeah its a bad fold. Im for sure calling the flop as you are good here more then enough plus you have a gutterball to the nuts to go with it.

    It's meh, the problem is there are hands you beat like Tx that can do this and you aren't that far behind two pair. given pre flop he is not likely to have a set.

    If you want to bet/fold, I would just check it back instead. That should get some value from Kx and Qx and maybe gets him to bluff the turn.

    Ok so if i call the raise and the turn is a blank what do i do when he bets into me.

    Also what do you prefer checking behind or bet calling?

    vs an unknown I don't think it makes much difference. you should bet more against passives and less against tricky players. Generally I don't think trying to play a smaller pot on this board will ever be bad. Some people will stack off with AK/K9 here all day so vs them that line would suck.

    on a turn brick I would just go ahead and get it in after calling the raise, you can't call hoping to improve.
