Default QQ - whats your plan postflop?

Villain is 18/15/4 over a significant sample. He probably has me around 21/18/4. We haven't gotten out of line with each other but are both fairly aggro. I 3bet a decent amount out of the blinds, but not usually against an utg raise, so his call probably indicates a pretty strong hand. Whats your plan on flop and why?

Meh, tight UTG raiser calling a 3-bet is going to be JJ+/AK so often. Against that entire range QdQ is 45% on this flop. So weak but I would probably just give it up. Our hand strength is deceptive. The flush redraw looks so strong, but we're drawing incredibly poorly against alot of his range.

Even against this villain dire i think JJ+ is a little tight ... i would say more like 88+

The easiest way to play this hand is bet/fold i think, but I'm not sure this is the best line as i don't see any worse hands calling or any better hands folding. If he has the Ad, then he will also have hit the king, as I don't think this villan would call preflop with AQ or AJ.

Is this just betting for information then? Could a check ever be justified? Could villan ever bet JJ if checked to him, or check AK (with the Ad) thinking he's way ahead and trying to get value from QQ/JJ?

your range is terrible... villain has position and hero has been 3b a "decent amount."

value from worse hands, you really don't mind sticking it in here with the diamond draw as youre only behind a few hands here. I definetly like c/r, you gain value from a bunch of lower pairs with and without diamonds whereas when you bet they can fold out pretty easily and if you get raised after betting you are in a meh spot.

Villain is a nitty 18/15 raising UTG. That already restricts his range significantly. He's calling a reraise from the SB. It doesn't matter that he's 3-bet a decent amount. Unless SB is a tard, his range to 3-bet an UTG nit is going to be tight, and UTG realizes this. If villain was in later position then things change dramatically, but he's not.
