Default Pair and draw $1/2

I have no history with this bvillain.

Full Tilt Poker
No Limit Holdem Ring game
Blinds: $1/$2
5 players
Converter

Stack sizes:
UTG: $125.05
CO: $277.15
Button: $44.05
Hero: $323
BB: $200

Pre-flop: (5 players) Hero is SB with K[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
<font color="#cc0000">UTG raises to $7</font>, CO calls, Button folds, Hero calls, BB folds.

Flop: J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] T[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] ($23, 3 players)
<font color="#cc0000">Hero bets $14</font>, UTG folds, <font color="#cc0000">CO raises to $34</font>.

What do you do? I bet with the idea of taking a b/3b line. Then I realized that a 3bet shove is a bit of an overbet.

3betting is awkward, so just call. Your line is good if stacks were more shallow, but given that you're slightly deep I think I'd rather c/c the flop and just play from there. c/r works too, but you'll get looked up light by combo draws and pairs given the drawy nature of the board and the fact that you're OOP...yeah, I think I just like c/c.

I'll prefer a c/r, but if I bet we need to bet bigger so villains raise will be bigger. Now I just would call since it isn't preflopraiser who raises you. Don't think your FE is good enough in this spot to 3bet

I also agree that you just call the flop. What do you do on the turn if the deuce of clubs comes? I think I'd check-raise all-in, but it's hard to say without better knowledge of the villain. Would he bet again with KJ, QJ, T9, or 99? Or KQ even? Those are the hands I can think of that he might have that would fold to a check-raise.

I agree with everyone that you should just call.On the turn it really depends on what comes and how aggresive you are
