QQ faces raise on flop

Hi, mildo
43/4 tells me that this guy plays a TON of flush draws, and with stats like that he is probably playing fit-or-fold as well. There aren't too many true maniacs around any more -- they lost all the money ♠_biggrin:

If he is passive, and starts raising, I get out of there.
53 hands is not a lot to go on, either but even against an unknown I think that I get out when the best hand I can make by the river is the 2nd or 3rd nut flush.

Even if you DO have the best hand now, if he has the A♣: or K♣: (or both) you really, really don't want to see an A, K or club OTR.

Here is what Equilab has to say.
I used a fairly artificial range for CO -- no AA, KK or sets

       Equity     Win     Tie
MP2    31.85%  31.59%   0.26% { AcKc, AcQc, KcQc, AcJc, KcJc, AcTc, KcTc, Ac9c, Kc9c, AdKc, AhKc, AsKc, AcKd, AcKh, AcKs, AdQc, AhQc, AsQc, AcQd, AcQh, AcQs, AdJc, AhJc, AsJc, AcJd, AcJh, AcJs, AdTc, AhTc, AsTc, AcTd, AcTh, AcTs, KdQc, KhQc, KsQc, KcQd, KcQh, KcQs, KdJc, KhJc, KsJc, KcJd, KcJh, KcJs, KdTc, KhTc, KsTc, KcTd, KcTh, KcTs }
MP3    68.15%  67.89%   0.26% { QdQc }

So you're a 2:1 favourite based on hole cards alone.

Now add the flop:

Board: 2♣J♣7♣
       Equity     Win     Tie
MP2    47.74%  47.74%   0.00% { AcKc, AcQc, KcQc, AcJc, KcJc, AcTc, KcTc, Ac9c, Kc9c, AdKc, AhKc, AsKc, AcKd, AcKh, AcKs, AdQc, AhQc, AsQc, AcQd, AcQh, AcQs, AdJc, AhJc, AsJc, AcJd, AcJh, AcJs, AdTc, AhTc, AsTc, AcTd, AcTh, AcTs, KdQc, KhQc, KsQc, KcQd, KcQh, KcQs, KdJc, KhJc, KsJc, KcJd, KcJh, KcJs, KdTc, KhTc, KsTc, KcTd, KcTh, KcTs }
MP3    52.26%  52.26%   0.00% { QdQc }

Now its a flip.

OTT your equity improves slightly, as villain now has only 1 street to hit his outs (assuming you're not beat already)

Even so, I can't fault the fold, since you don't have pot odds to make the call, and you have only marginally correct implied odds <== I didn't calculate this, I just guessed.

You can raise even bigger preflop. You can fold even on flop after the raise.

When oop, preflop I always raise to 4 bb's + 1 bb per limper, so in this case I would raise to $0,28. OTF, I agree that we can fold, since we are not drawing to the nuts, but I would also consider it tough to fold, especially against a minraise. I would then fold the turn.
