Hero's Effective Stacks: $300
Hero (UTG+1): K Q

Pre-flop:
HJ opens to $20. UTG calls. Hero (UTG+1) calls.

Flop: 4 7 6
UTG checks. Hero checks. HJ checks.

Turn: Q
UTG checks. Hero checks. HJ checks.

River: 9
UTG checks. Hero checks. HJ bets $25. UTG raises to $50. Hero?

Questions:
1. When the Q hits, should I have led out here for value?
2. HJ finally bets $25, but UTG min-raises to $50. What kind of range does UTG have here?

I think you can bet the turn. Since you didn't bet turn you can bet the river. Since you didn't bet river now we have no idea where we are and 2 other players are battling.

Also I don't understand the preflop action where HJ opens and then we have utg and hero utg+1 making their first action calling the raise
