The pot is paying you enough to push here imo, but I wouldn't be surprised if you were beat either. Too bad you don't have a better read. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

You're likely up against a range of something like:

{AdKd, JJ+, 88-99} at the tightest so you're 34%+

You're calling 1720 into a pot of 4105

I don't think i like check raising this flop unless i want to get it in.

Considering pre flop action and that he's tiny 3 betting you at a point without antes, i think i want to check/call flop. Is that wrong?

I either lead/fold this flop or check/call this flop. I think c/r is bad. As played I probably get it in as it's a draw heavy board.

I thought about leading, but doesn't that look exactly like what I have, an overpair wondering if he's up against an overpair? I suppose if you mix this strategy in with sets as well, it can work...

Check/call does seem to make the most sense. I assume we ch/fold to a second decent-sized bullet the turn on any card but a queen?
