Hand converted by PokerTracker 4

Hero (BTN): 176.6 BB
SB: 223.4 BB (VPIP: 15.84, PFR: 13.57, 3Bet Preflop: 6.76, Hands: 228)
BB: 100 BB (VPIP: 17.32, PFR: 11.90, 3Bet Preflop: 6.90, Hands: 131)
UTG: 170.6 BB (VPIP: 29.67, PFR: 20.88, 3Bet Preflop: 21.05, Hands: 95)
MP: 144.2 BB (VPIP: 23.08, PFR: 15.38, 3Bet Preflop: 7.69, Hands: 26)
CO: 103.4 BB (VPIP: 26.38, PFR: 23.62, 3Bet Preflop: 13.00, Hands: 260)

SB posts SB 0.4 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.4 BB) Hero has J♦ A♦

UTG raises to 3 BB, fold, fold, Hero raises to 10 BB, fold, fold, UTG calls 7 BB

Flop: (21.4 BB, 2 players) Q♦ A♣ J♣
UTG bets 15 BB, Hero raises to 30 BB, UTG calls 15 BB

Turn: (81.4 BB, 2 players) 2♦
UTG bets 55 BB, Hero raises to 136.6 BB and is all-in, UTG calls 75.6 BB and is all-in

River: (342.6 BB, 2 players) 5♣

How to play the Flop? I would hate to see a T, K or Q on the Turn so i decide to raise his Donk. On tthis Turn i have 50% Equity against AA,QQ-JJ,AJs+,AJo+ so i get it in.

On this turn you have close to 0 equity if he doesn't play like this with KK.
And the thing is that villain should definitely 4bet KK+ and he should not call a 3bet with AJ. I also doubt that he has AK OTT since he can't have a flush draw and your range is super strong. So his range is most likely AQ,QQ,JJ on the turn.

What comes to flop play, UTG will flat 3bets with very strong range, when he donks I would not raise. When you raise OTF it kinda means you would be willing to go broke there. I also think he will call your minraise every single time so you will see turn anyway. The question just is if you want to increase the pot or not.

Why do you 3b preflop in the first place?
I do not like the min raise on flop.
We have equity on turn as we draw to nuts.

sometimes i also call pre Ajs. SB/BB are quite aggresive through and i hate to call a Squeeze here. AJs/AJ is therefore in my 3bet Range against EP. I can pot control good on the button if he calls. Overall i like this spot. So as played call Flop / Turn, Fold unimproved River is the better line?

2P+draw= enough to call.
