UTG had been lag player open raising ton and aggro postflop in HU pots.
So preflop I thought about 3betting little bit but thought its too wide and calling likely better.
Flop brings nuts with bd fd but not really much support. UTG cbets and while he had been very active he probably has like KK, JJ, AQ, nut fd or some combination of those. I would have just called dry AQ here but I thought as I do have QQ it will decrease chances of UTG having same with backup. So I decided to stack off and potted blank turn after UTG called flop.
Well turn is actually not total blank as if villain have like KKQJ he has K high straight. But anyway main point in this one was if flop would still be better to just call without backup? Though yeah I also block fd with Q♣:
SB: €10 (100 bb)
BB: €10 (100 bb)
UTG:€45.52 (455 bb)
MP: €8.65 (86 bb)
CO: €10 (100 bb)
Hero, BTN: €21.6 (216 bb)
Preflop: Hero is BU with A♥:Q♥:Q♣:7♦:
UTG raise to €0.3, MP calls, CO folds, Hero calls, SB folds, BB calls
Flop: (€1.25) K♣:J♥:T♣: (2 players)
BB checks, UTG bets €1.04, MP folds, Hero raise to €4.31, BB folds, UTG calls
Turn: (€9.87) 9♠: (2 players)
UTG checks, Hero bets €9.43, UTG folds
ofc and you have the backdoor :heart:-draw aswell which is a pro for playing it slow.
