Default 5/10: QQ against pressure on a scary board

Stats:
UTG just sat down.
CO is 51/5/1.91 after 100 hands


Absolute 5/10 Hold'em <font color="blue">(6 max, 6 handed)</font>

Pre-flop: Hero is SB with Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
<font color="red">UTG raises</font>, <font color="gray">1 fold</font>, CO calls, <font color="gray">1 fold</font>, <font color="red">Hero 3-bets</font>, <font color="gray">1 fold</font>, UTG calls. CO calls.

Flop: (10 SB) 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(3 players)</font>
<font color="red">Hero bets</font>, <font color="gray">1 fold</font>, <font color="red">CO raises</font>, Hero calls.

Turn: (7 BB) 7[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(2 players)</font>
Hero checks, <font color="red">CO bets</font>, Hero?


When I'm behind here, I likely have 1, maybe 2 outs. When I'm ahead, my opponents likely has at least 9 outs, right? Am I ahead often enough to called down (getting about 9-2)?

I'd just fold it here. If he was raising the flop for a free flush card, he just got it. I can't see putting 2 more bets into this pot being profitable in the long run, given that a fourth heart will come to beat you sometimes anyway. You may be drawing dead already. If not, you could be drawing to one out only. Good time to dump it.

I think the turn would be a fold in this situation.

If instead you had the Q [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] , then I think you would have an easy call here.

I'm not sure on this one, however against this opponent I'm very tempted to see a showdown here, even with the board like it is.
But like I said not convinced either way.
