What is best to do with our top pair in such situation? We pllay against a reg.

Preflop: Hero is BU with J:h, T:h.
MP2 folds, MP3 raises to $0.16, CO folds, Hero calls $0.16, 2 folds, BB folds.

The type of reg we play against is very important.

If he is passive, as most of them are, I would consider folding the turn to his double barrel. The 3 is not a good barrel card and since he opened in MP his range is stronger.

Otherwise calling turn is fine (but as a default folding is better at these limits).

Preflop I prefer to 3-bet fold my hand if we play against a tighter opener since we won't be able to show a huge profit calling hands like these (especially if we play them passive postflop when we dont hit).
