UTG was just moved to the table 2 hands ago so no real read. He is 3rd in chips and im 1.5x avg. If i were to call flop what would my plan be for a blank turn if he leads into me again? Thanks.

Readless, I would probably raise the flop. If not, it would be hard not to call down.

I think if the villain leads out again on the turn, you're in a tough spot. The flop overbet indicates he has something, but would really like you to go away.

If he comes out strong on a blank turn, I'd probably give it up. You still have a great stack, and don't need to play for all of your chips in a situation where you're unsure of where you stand.

I'd probably just fold, but I'm a nit.

I really doubt he has AA/KK here. He clearly doesn't want action. QQ is possible, but I expect him to have a worse hand most of the time.
No way I'm folding.

I'm not folding. The value is perhaps in calling and reassessing if a diamond or overcard falls because I would suggest that he often has either or both to overbet the pot like this against a smaller stack. However, the more I think about it, I don't think he's folding very much of his range and he's not often ahead so I think I'd push here.

folding is out of the question! the flop doesn't get any better for JJ HU. also overbetting the pot seems like villain wants the pot right here and now and is not looking for any action...

tough hand. I think I would push because there are too many overcards out there that can hit
