MP2: $31.02

Pre Flop: ($0.35) Hero is UTG+1 with Q A
UTG calls $0.25, Hero raises to $1.25, MP1 calls $1.25, 6 folds

Flop: ($3.10) T A J (2 players)
Hero bets $2.00, MP1 raises to $4, Hero calls $2

Turn: ($11.10) 7 (2 players)
Hero checks, MP1 bets $1.20, Here should do what?

What to do with these weird lines by whales? After min raised should I just call down? I know I probably should have made it about $2.50 on the flop. I called the minraise as I have like 10 outs and I may be good after all. When I see fish min raise the flop on high broadway boards like this it is usually two pair. If it was like A9, A8 etc usually they just go nom nom nom and call away it seems.

Bet bigger on the flop and just call him down. Even if he looks like a huge whale, it doesn't seem like villain is a maniac necessarily.

I call turn and the river unless it's a big bet.

The flop minraise is often the misguided "you don't have an ace, I have an ace" bet (kicker does not apply).

The turn minbet is either "oh, I guess you did have an ace, I wonder if my 3 kicker is any good" or possibly "I'll keep him in the pot with my 2pr and hammer the river".
