Why did you raise on the flop?
To win in poker you only need to be one step ahead of your opponents. Two steps may be detrimental.

I put UTG+2 on AK or QQ, maybe JJ.
If he had AA he would have capped preflop.
I have 6,5 or 4 outs to win depending on his hand.
If he reraises me I fold here, otherwise I'll probably take a free river card or fold to a raise and/or scary turn card.

How can you put anyone on a hand after just a preflop raise and calling your reraise? He could have 99 for that matter.

Why would you fold to a reraise? The pot is big you are getting the odds to call.

Whats a scary turn card on this board? its scary enough. One pair on a board with three broadway cards hardly holds up.

The only way I see folding this hand if you are getting action from more than one opponent.

People tend to raise with AA, KK, QQ, JJ and AK.
With AA and KK people tend to reraise.
that was my reasoning for the "guess"
Maybe (probably) I'm seing myself here, and that could be a mistake.
Anyway: You are absolutely on the spot with your opinions!
Thx for the help. I really apreciate it.

if AA-JJ, AK are the only hands you raise preflop then you are missing out on way too many profitable situations.

On hands like this, I don't take a free card, I take the cheap showdown but hope they fold their weak ace (which is what it is most of the time) on turn.
