Calling a raise from UTG is maybe not that good with KQ?

Easy fold on flop, right?

Easy fold OTF.

I am really not an expert, but as far as I was told, we should fold KQo already preflop.
It is in my standart 3bet-bluff range, but at NL2 vs unknown standard bluff 3betting is not recommended.

K♥:Q♠: in position vs the initial raiser I prefer calling. People are so loose in their raising ranges that KQ is very much ahead pre-flop.Play more hands in position and the goal is to win the hand even you miss everything. Use the power of "POSITION" to analyze the strength of your opponents hand.

Flop: ($0.25) T♥ Q♦ 6♣ (4 players) We flopped top pair decent kicker 4players in the pot. It's a standard call and you made the discipline fold when suddenly Big Blind is telling a story we don't like to hear. I have a monster hand and let's play for all the marbles.

ahhmm, Sorry Sir I don't like to hear your ugly story. I don't want to pay you.

Very Well Done
