I was deep in the Sunday Storm with a top 90 stack. This hand came about - your thoughts are most appreciated.

I had a weird feeling he had AQ. Min raises pre had been the norm for about 2 hours or so.

These situations are a real leak of mine. Laying down what could be the winning hand, but probably isn't. Any tips on how to handle these situations?

Me and I'm guessing a lot of other 2+2ers will refuse to reply to threads with unconverted hand histories!

Even VPIP/PFR for villain would be a big help here. I'm letting this go pre against some opponents.
As played flop is a mandatory call. Turn is a tough spot. Occasionally your beating QJ but your far more likely to see a set or AQ after villain opens utg.

pretty easy fold preflop, KQ tends to be dominated by utg range. Also, as a beginner, you should probably be looking to be mostly reshoving or folding vs opens when shallower than 25bb, not calling them.

In addition, you do not have a big hand, you have mediocre hand preflop and one pair postflop.

Depending on the table dynamic, usually folding pre. KQ is a nice looking hand, but will get you into trouble a lot against a preflop raise. Calling the flop, but likely folding the turn. Not too many hands he could be shoving here. You are hoping he has AK, KQ, or QJ, but he also has AQ and QT a lot here.

KQo is behind to anyone that is trying to play well UTG. 3bet or fold preflop but mainly fold.
