Hand converted by PokerTracker 4

BTN: 111.4 BB (VPIP: 27.59, PFR: 18.97, 3Bet Preflop: 4.76, Hands: 58)
SB: 153.2 BB (VPIP: 14.71, PFR: 11.76, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 36)
Hero (BB): 111.6 BB
UTG: 185.2 BB (VPIP: 29.14, PFR: 18.86, 3Bet Preflop: 10.67, Hands: 179)
MP: 58 BB (VPIP: 20.00, PFR: 0.00, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 5)
CO: 136.4 BB (VPIP: 19.05, PFR: 14.29, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 21)

SB posts SB 0.4 BB, Hero posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.4 BB) Hero has Q♣ A♣

fold, fold, fold, fold, SB raises to 3 BB, Hero raises to 9 BB, SB calls 6 BB

Flop: (18 BB, 2 players) 7♦ T♦ T♥
SB checks, Hero bets 10 BB, SB calls 10 BB

Turn: (38 BB, 2 players) A♦
SB checks, Hero bets 22 BB, SB raises to 55.6 BB, fold,

Would you c-bet this Flop?
He has mainly some suited (and some offsuited) broadways and pp in his range and I don't think this board hits him.
Let's say his range is something like this:
JJ-77,AJs+,KQs,QJs,JTs,AJo+

As played c-bet Turn?

I think would not raise AQs for value against a 14/11. However, I have much to improve on my blind play so don't bother too much ;)
I would def check flop behind as this gives villain a wider range. The call from villain narrows it down to pp, flush draw that got there and a possible ATs.
As played, fold OTT.

It is a 36 hand sample...
Turn is a xb.

Just wanted to write the same. The sample size is not sufficient to set any conclusions about his tendencies.

3betting pre is fine. On the flop: What do you expect him to fold?

To me it's a clear checkback on the flop already for different reasons:
1) We only have our overcards as equity
2) We have showdown value
3) Our foldequity is quite marginal

If you cbet AQ without any backdoorequity (apart from overcards) you are cbetting too much.

As played I also like the check on the turn since not a lot of worse (apart from floated AJo with a backdoorflushdraw) calls our bet

Paired boards get more folds on average.

C-betting this board probably comes down to a question of balance. I think c-betting or checking behind is fine depending on whether this is a board that you always c-bet or always check. The turn has to be a check behind though. You already have showdown val and you don't want to risk getting blown off the best hand.
