Default Monster or FOS?

Haven't seen him before and I have no stats on this guy

preflop is meh, but focus on postflop. Turn is a great card to take a stab at, but what about his raise? what do I do now?
I think everything but folding here is bad, but who knows...

Full Tilt Poker, $0.50/$1 NL Hold'em Cash Game, 5 Players
LeggoPoker Hand History Converter

CO: $101.50
BTN: $101.10
Hero (SB): $102.90
BB: $118.75
UTG: $129.20

Pre-Flop: Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] K[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] dealt to Hero (SB)
<font color="red">UTG raises to $3.50</font>, 2 folds, Hero calls $3, BB calls $2.50

Flop: ($10.50) 6[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (3 Players)
Hero checks, BB checks, UTG checks

Turn: ($10.50) 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (3 Players)
<font color="red">Hero bets $7</font>, BB folds, <font color="red">UTG raises to $20</font>, Hero ???

I probably don't bet this turn, I mean, there's a good chance it'll get checked through .. but since you did, I dunno, it's hard to say OOP. I'd probably just fold and be nitty. If we hit our heart, we don't know if we'll get paid off, or if we'll make a second-best hand.

I like the bet. I hate getting raised. I probably call.

Ok. What is your plan on different rivers?

1. Blank
2. K or Q
3. Heart

i bet this turn always. i call the turn raise as well, sometimes shoving if i think i have any FE whatsoever (though probably not a great line v. unknown).

also, agree w. nick on his river plans.

If we river a K or Q, I like check/calling. We induce bluffs if he's behind, and we keep the pot small(er) for showdown when we're behind or outkicked.

If we hit a flush, I think bet/calling is pretty standard. What are we scared of? 99?

In the acctual hand I just folded. It might be weak but, Isn't this a spot where we are going to either win a small pot or loose a big one?
I mean, we are going to miss a decent amount of times and just c/f river. And then if we hit he is probably not fire again if he was bluffing and he is definitely fire a big bet with a monster.
