UTG just arrived at the table. SB is 50/4/1 after 26 hands.
If it was only UTG, it would be an easy call right? But what to do with SB?

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $0.50 BB (5 handed) Poker Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)

Button ($42)
SB ($33.35)
Hero ($49.25)
UTG ($14.50)
MP ($66.75)

Preflop: Hero is BB with K, K.
UTG calls $0.50, 2 folds, SB completes, Hero raises to $2, UTG calls $1.50, SB calls $1.50.

Flop: ($6) Q, 7, J (3 players)
SB checks, Hero bets $3.5, UTG raises to $12.5, SB calls $12.50, [color=#CC3333]Hero ?

yikes. i don't like this spot. it is very possible that one of the players is holding QJ and one is on a flush draw. I would probably just shove if there was just one other player in the pot.

Yes, UTG seems like an easy call. But, the board is drawy as hell with straight draws and flush draws and alot of pair combos. Due to SB's range being so wide, and the pot already kind of big, I put him all in, expecting to be called by alot of hands we beat, but also some hands he has us trapped with like 77. I have a hard time seeing JJ/QQ from him tho. I also advice a flop all in because there are tons of turn cards that makes it possible for him to bluff us out of this big pot, even tho we have the best hand. Also, he already has like 35% of his stack invested, so I doubt he will fold hands like KQ here.
