Default Always confusing for me, KQ hits a pair on the turn

Another unknown

$0.1/$0.25 No Limit Holdem
6 players
Converted at weaktight.com

Stacks:
UTG (<font color="#0000cc">$8.00</font>)
Hero (<font color="#0000cc">$34.25</font>)
CO (<font color="#0000cc">$8.20</font>)
BTN (<font color="#0000cc">$24.85</font>)
SB (<font color="#0000cc">$19.70</font>)
BB (<font color="#0000cc">$24.00</font>)

Pre-flop: ($0.35, 6 players) Hero is UTG+1 K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
<font color="#cc0000">UTG raises to $0.75</font>, Hero calls $0.75, <font color="#777777">2 folds</font>, SB calls $0.65, BB calls $0.5

Flop: 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] ($3, 4 players)
SB checks, BB checks, UTG checks, Hero checks

Turn: K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] ($3, 4 players)
SB checks, BB checks, UTG checks, <font color="#cc0000">Hero bets $2</font>, <font color="#cc0000">SB raises to $6.25</font>


Spots like this I never know if he's raising what he thinks is my draw or what is a better hand. What am I supposed to do here, OOP, and probably facing a shot on the river?

Edit: I even considered checking through here and playing b/f on the river, but that seemed so weak. But this is exactly the situation why, and every time I hit top pair on a drawy board like this I get concerned to bet it because of this situation.

I just fold, I cant think of any hands we beat that he would do this with.

Your hand is weak on a drawy board; you'll be hard-pressed to call any sort of sizable river bet, so cut your losses

Dump it, he's doing this into three players = you're often beat. Especially if he's an unknown. You might continue if you had a favorable read on his range in this kind of spot and if fewer players were in the pot with you.

Stats/reads.


I don't really like the pre-flop call without a good reason for it.


Fold the turn. He played this really weird and has to have something pretty big.

Easy fold. He expects the PFR to bet because he checked behind a low flop and paint turned.
