Hey,
I was new to anonymous table.
How would you proceed OTT (and later streets possibly) when improved to 2nd pair?

$0.50/$1 No Limit Hold'em Cash, 5 Players

BTN: $95.43 (95.4 bb)
SB: $301.02 (301 bb)
Hero (BB): $103.53 (103.5 bb)
MP: $214.36 (214.4 bb)
CO: $385.69 (385.7 bb)

Preflop: Hero is BB with A Q
MP raises to $3, CO calls $3, BTN folds, SB calls $2.50, Hero raises to $14, MP folds, CO calls $11, SB folds

Flop: ($34) K 4 9 (2 players)
Hero bets $14, CO calls $14

Turn: ($62) Q (2 players)

Hi.

I don't see how we can bet for value on the Turn so we should check.
Do we have enough equity to call vs a bet? We lose to KQ/JTs/99, and I think stuff like QJs/QTs will often check back on the Turn.

Thus I think we are crushed vs any betting range and we should just check fold on Turn and River.

Thanks.

If he checks back we could bet for value right? With AK people mostly backraise pre flop and with QK doesnt check back T.

nah that is way too optimistic - definitely still a c/f on the River. I think AK is still potentially in his range (not too often but still possible), sometimes you'll see a weird slowplay with JT on the Turn, and KJs and KTs are still in villain's range.

If he has QJs QTs he will have KJs KTs

Besides you are not guaranteed a call by QJs and QTs (and there are more combos of KX than QX cos there are 2 Qs out but only 1 K out from our point of view).
