HI villian is 13/8 after 24 hands no more reads on him. I definitely about my whole line...my thought process is below.

Poker Stars $0.02/$0.05 No Limit Hold'em - 6 players - View hand 1847762
DeucesCracked Poker Videos Hand History Converter

BTN: $15.19
SB: $5.02
BB: $5.00
UTG: $3.38
Hero (MP): $5.96
CO: $5.65

Pre Flop: ($0.07) Hero is MP with J Spade A Spade
1 fold, Hero raises to $0.15, 3 folds, BB calls $0.10

Flop: ($0.32) 9 Diamond A Club 6 Spade (2 players)
BB bets $0.17, Hero calls $0.17

Turn: ($0.66) Q Heart (2 players)
BB bets $0.63, Hero ???

If he just calls in BB I think mos of his range are mainly Pocket pair and mybe some brodways. OTF i feel he could be donking with like JJ,TT and some worse Ax (he is 3-betting pre AK,AQ right) and if a raise here I´m folding worse and I´m trapped with better but OTF i have no clear plan for turn what he will do on turn and ho I´m going to react ?? Are these guys rather slowplying set and other monsters or not ??? OTT are you folding or do you prefer some other line

Villain here only has 24 hands so its hard to tell what his 3b range could be. Lets assume QQ+ he 3bs because even after 24 hands he has raised at least once. Without knowing anything about him lets assume he might just call AQo, 66, 99, AJo-A8o, AJs-A8s and maybe not 3b AQs. Because he can flop big with some hands but 3b pre could be a little trouble.

Usually when Im IP like this with TPGK and have a villain half pot on the flop I try to raise to about .40 for two reasons: 1) if villain reraises I can easily get away from the hand and not feel bad about it, 2) If villain calls he will most likely check the turn which allows me to pot control in case I am beat, but if villain raises I can still get away from the hand.

On the flop the villain may have a set here, two pair or possibly a worse Ax and is betting to see where you stand by making a small half pot size bet. Once villain leads out with a pot size bet on the turn we have to worry about what to do on the river. We cant really stand to call another river pot size bet with TPGK and as much as it will bother us folding on the river it will have to be the best option.

If anyone else has a different opinion let me know. This is just how I see it vs an unknown.
