Villain(MP2) is Very Aggro, trying to be a bully, although he wasn't winning pots (at least not ones he'd shown).

How's my line? How do you play it?

PokerRoom 0.50/1 Hold'em (9 handed) internettexasholdem.com

Preflop: Hero is SB with :Qs:, :Kc:.
1 fold, UTG+1 calls, 1 fold, MP2 raises, 3 folds, Hero calls, BB calls, UTG+1 calls.

Flop: (8 SB) :Jc:, , :Kh: (4 players)
Hero checks, I check hoping he'll bet as last to act, I can raise and hopefully get it heads up so I know where I am
BB checks, UTG+1 bets, MP2 raises, Hero 3-bets, calling seemed bad, and I'm not sure if I give villian any credit yet
BB folds, UTG+1 calls, MP2 calls.

Turn: (8.50 BB) (3 players)
Hero bets, was looking for a Turn raise from somebody, planned to give it up if it was raised after me, bad idea?
UTG+1 calls, MP2 calls.

River: (11.50 BB) (3 players)
Hero bets, UTG+1 folds, MP2 calls.

Final Pot: 13.50 BB[/b]
Come give me advice.

You played it fine, I would play it the same. From your read on MP2 though, don't fold if he raises you on the turn, call him down. Very rarely would you give this up to a turn raise.

Thanks Ltrain, that's really my main question with posting this hand. Without a read I'd lead the flop, but with a read I think the flop check-raise is better. I'm always wondering what are situations where folding headsup or 3 handed on the big streets is correct. Was wondering if this could be one.
Come give me advice.

I think considering the action/position a CR is good here.

Leading out gives 8:1 and odds for any type of draw including a gutshot to tag along. A cr will reduce their odds to 4.5:1 making it a larger mistake for them to call 2 with hands like Ax, middle pairs, or any back door draws they might be holding.
