Raise less pre imo, make it 250/275. Flop is 100% player dependant. Don"t think Im raising here as he can 3-bet ship w/ a lot of hands inc dry 9"s and KQ. One major factor w/ Holdem atm is ppl play the flop pretty well at times, but seem to b lost on the turn. I prob flat his flop bet. If he checks the turn then we bet ~900ish.
If he seems like a player that cannot give up 1pair type hands then we fold flop. If we have seen him fire multiple bullets, then we fold.
If it was me, Id just spike the Q on the turn wen he bet flop w/ 9x, but most ppl dnt run tht good :)

So he bets 400 into a 700 pot? Standard IMO. Your choices are to float him by calling (what I would do) or fold here as you only have 10 cards to hit which MIGHT make you the best hand.
By floating him here with a decent stack behind, you"ll be able to re-assess after you see what he does on the turn.

as you say he is new to live poker by your read on him...so i feel a re-raise of say 1200-1600 more would get you in more trouble, as he"d prob call if he has 10 or jack, as he"d prob only be looking at his own cards.
So fold, however its tricky, as you could call, which may slow him down on the turn. and you may hit your a or k, and slow play it on the turn and river.
not much help actually!

More or less this I think.
I"d raise less pre, flat this bet - pounce on any weakness on the turn.
Although I did do that online yesterday with 77 on a QQ52 board
I"m pretty sure the table were really impressed with my play when the average stack I"d set all in turned over Q2 ::)

It"s wise, and dare I say it "fashionable", for him to lead into you (the PFRaiser) with a strong hand like JJ, TT or JT here. It"s done to try to entice you to re-raise with hands like AA, KK, QQ etc. which he"s obv going to call / 4 bet / shove all day long.
I think your PFR amount is fine - when folk say "I"d raise less" I can"t see them making it any less than 300 as it almost prices the BB to call with any two cards.
I wouldn"t re-raise as I don"t have a made hand on flop, I would float him and see what card comes / how he acts on the Turn. The ONLY way to play it IMO.
