How's my play in this hand, wasn't sure if a PF call is even legit. NO READS AT ALL, FIRST HAND AT TABLE.
PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.02 BB (9 handed) - Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com

saw flop

CO ($1.83)
Button ($2.07)
SB ($4.41)
BB ($1)
UTG ($0.92)
UTG+1 ($1.97)
HERO (MP1) ($1.97)
MP2 ($5)
MP3 ($6.01)

Preflop: HERO is MP1 with Q, Q
1 fold, UTG+1 bets $0.10, HERO raises to $0.22, 6 folds, UTG+1 raises to $0.71, HERO calls $0.49

Flop: ($1.45) 7, 4, A (2 players)
UTG+1 checks, HERO checks

Turn: ($1.45) 2 (2 players)
UTG+1 bets $0.40, HERO ?????

3bet sizing should be .30 (3x in position)

also, at 2NL most players aren't willing to 4bet without KK/AA. i usually flat call early position raises and 3bet against villains who aren't too nitty

Hoopy is an unknown quantity at this point
 Raise more preflop, $0.30-0.35 seems good.
Calling his 4 bet is ok in my opinion.
Call turn bet, more action on river you can likely lay it down.

id like to see a bet on the flop. The 0.40 bet on the turn is a fold or raise situation, personally i would re-raise the 0.40, without the ace he cant call, so at least you get the information. If he has AK you would expect him to lead at the pot hoping to trap someone with Ax, his check on the flop shows weakness as does his turn bet, re-raise him, if he calls then the hand is over.

I'd raise to .40 pf - as played I think you're call is fine. I would probably b/f the flop as I only see these guys raising with an A here.

On the turn (as played) I think this a fold or shove situation. You only have about .80 left and I would usually say shove here, although I think you're only getting called by an A. Tough call.

I don't see what hands you have beat here unless he really liked the look of those Jacks. As was already said, it's a fold/shove situation. The flop check leads me to believe he's got Kings and if you bet your remaining stack you might get him to fold them, though there's always the chance he flopped trip Aces and you're done either way.

You can't beat any hands that the average person is 4-betting with, so your options are to fold or try and bluff him out of the pot. As this is 2NL, we can't even reliably say that the guy will fold his Kings. As played I fold the turn.

Toughie.

This.

I'm calling on the turn and reevaluation on the river.
