Default Flop play 1/2 NL

Being pretty inexperienced in NL play (I am an avid limit player) I am still not great at deciding these flops. So I am asking you. Standard? I think I played this the right way, but want validation. (Sorry, I don't have a hand converter yet)

1/2 Full tilt NL

Hero is UTG $90- A-Qc (First round. No reads)

Hero raises to $7

Fold
Fold
UTG+2 raises to $17 ($260 stack)
Fold back to Hero
Hero calls (Comments? Get agressive here?)

Flop is 8-J-9 (Two Clubs)$36.00 in the pot

Hero leads with $25 (Comments?)

UTG+3 raises all in.

Hero calls. (Is this ever a fold here?)

The rest of the hand obviously is not important, but 9 clubs came on turn, Jh on the river.

UTG+3 had A-A.

All comments good or bad welcome [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

The question here is do you have AcQc? I'm not sure if you won or not. If you do, it is standard to get all in here. I think the preflop play is very marginal. AQ is often dominated preflop and OOP it is tough to play even to the small reraise that UTG+2 did.

Damn. Yes. I did have AcQc. Given that, should that still hit the muck even before the reraise? I realize this shows my inexperience at NL....lol but. Also, the reraise should have me heading for the door as well? That I can see. A-Q has to be dominated in this spot.

Thanks for your responses!!!!

Ok, PF is OK I suppose since it is suited. But dumping it isnt bad because you can easily lose large pots

Why havent you reloaded PF?

On the flop I would C/R with such a short stack. Depending on the bet size of course. You are very liekly behind here so if you hve no FE from the bet you have to fold it

If you were deeper you could b/3bet AI but you really want some FE

Hey Wombie. Thanks alot. I guess the reson I didnt fire again PF was I guess I felt I had to be behind. What hands could reraise me here? So I thought I would see the flop and go from there. I am assuming that this kind of thinking will get me killed in NL. Is that right? (Unless you were asking why I didnt get more in front of me, then I have no idea....lol)

Thanks again!!!

Maybe stupid but in this situation in live games with AQ and especially stinking AJ from UTG, I've been tending towards limp-calling. If the action goes nuts before it gets back to me, fine I'll muck the piece of crap for $2. If I call one raise then hit the flop, skippy and I may either lead or check raise, if not I'm not real tied to the hand and I don't feel obligated to my a continuation bet from bad position on the flop so again, I get out relatively cheap. Down side is some oddbal raises with A-rag and flops 2 pair you get in trouble maybe.

Easy c/r on the flop.
I see no point for leading at all.
