I'd bet 250 on the flop and fold to reraise, but I guess he's pretty tight so he could have QQ, KK AA?

I'd still bet the flop part for value, and part for knowing where I am.

As you get reraised after a UTG raise from a tight opp. i would give him a range of QQ+,AK,(AQs).

JJ is a really difficult hand to play in EP - against a tight opponent i would even consider folding this to a reraise.

i think on this flop you can either fold or shove - any reraise lower than a push will commit you to the pot.

I wouldn't call the three-bet, but I'm a nit. The three-betting range of a decently tight villain should be narrow enough here that if you do call, it should be almost entirely for set value, and you don't really have the implied odds for that. Checkraising this flop is a spew unless you have reason to believe that he's three-betting AQo preflop. That part is a simple math question. Bet/folding ought to show a profit so long as villain has at least AK in his range, and you must have believed he did, or you wouldn't have called preflop.

If you raise UTG and get reraised like that, watch out. You're beat unless the guy is a dufus. Fold preflop probably.

Right now I'm in the fold preflop or c/f flop camp...

Just wondering how this hand would change if hero had QQ?
