Villain is completely unknown, only 4 hands but 50/0 so seems fishy. Better to check this flop maybe but I felt the need to prtect my hand here. I'm not exactly sure what villain has here. I figure I can't call here against an unknown, but not exactly sure what hand he has other than maybe a set or something like JJ-AA, maybe even some draw. No idea.

Party, $0.01/$0.02 No Limit Hold'em Cash, 6 Players

BB: $2.31 (115.5 bb)
Hero (BTN): $2 (100 bb)
MP: $2.18 (109 bb)
CO: $0.46 (23 bb)
UTG: $3.30 (165 bb)
SB: $2.18 (109 bb)

Preflop: Hero is BTN with Q Q
UTG calls $0.02, MP folds, CO calls $0.02, Hero raises to $0.10, 2 folds, UTG calls $0.08, CO calls $0.08

Flop: ($0.33) 2 3 T (3 players)
UTG checks, CO checks, Hero bets $0.20, UTG raises to $3.20, 2 folds

Results:

Spoiler

$0.73 pot ($0.03 rake)
Final Board: 2 3 T
Hero mucked Q Q and lost (-$0.30 net)
CO mucked and lost (-$0.10 net)
UTG mucked and won $0.70 ($0.40 net)

Hi Knight,

Preflop: looks fine.

Flop: We shouldn't be results oriented and lean towards a check. In this spot we should valuebet and protection is a byproduct. First and foremost we want pure value from Tx, JJ, pairs and draws.

I would also bet larger, closer to 0.25 or so.

And I'd bet/fold without information here as well.
