Default 1$ Noob faces tricky turn

OK, so I have one of my usual NLHE tilts me periods, and I usually solve that with playing Stud or PLO for a while (Since the US has left the building not much stud action to be found tho ... sigh)

But ok, I've just received Stox book and started playing minbet hold'em.


I haven't played long, so not many reads, but this is a more passive table and noone seems to get out of line .. fairly honest players.

Preflop: Hero is BB with Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
<font color="#CC3333">UTG raises</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, CO calls, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>, Hero calls.

Flop: (6.50 SB) A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, UTG calls, CO calls.

Turn: (4.75 BB) 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">UTG raises</font>, <font color="#CC3333">CO 3-bets</font>, Hero ??



I didn't expect the table to explode like this, and I realized that if I call here, then turn will be capped. Still based on intuition alone I leaned towards a call ??

But since I am a LHE noob, I am very open for comments on all streets.
