How about cap the flop (doesn't have to be right as often since SB is hanging around).

Then on the turn, if UTG donks, we can be pretty sure we're behind.

If he checks, we can value bet it with certainty.

Meh.

My normal line here is call 3-bet and call down most turns and rivers.

I have a hard time figuring out what we're ahead of here though. Like, what raise/caps pf that bet/3-bets a T-high flop that we beat? Especially since the villain isn't very aggressive, both PF or postflop, although he certainly isn't passive.

I think it'd probably be +EV to fold here somewhere though... bleh, no idea...

I don't know. If we cap the flop, wouldn't villain try to c/r us on the turn?

When a thrid player is tagging along to chase his draws, I feel that you can be a lot more aggressive on these hands.
Becaue every bet you put in is gaining double value.

I cap the flop.
I call down thereafter.

If Villain were a huge LAG, or I held QQ+ I would raise the turn again.
