There is just no way you can justify folding a Q here. If you know your opponent is a maniac you are happy to call him down all the way… and get his stack 90% of the time. To those who justify folding here: what do you call with? Exactly 99? If that is the case then, as Jonathan says, I hate to break it to you but you're probably not very good at poker. So just call him down and accept to get stacked 10% of the time. You'll get your chips back in many other spots.

This hand has people heated in the comments 😂😂
I guess you're right but splashy players always go broke eventually. It's a paired board. Most likely hero wasn't playing off live read and his flop call was a frustration float to begin with. It's really a question of bankroll. If you are playing with rent money can't afford to be calling off overbets with just a pair. I wonder if hero didn't outlast J8 bluffer in the long run.
Here's a common situation I could use some help with: UTG is known to fold everything pre except pairs and monsters, which they habitually limp in with, looking to 3-bet any raise behind them. What to do with AQo in MP after this player limps?
You raised preflop, if nothing hits, you end up risking more money by bluffing. Ak aq aj looks good but most of the time you have fold on the flop or risk more money by bluffing. If the other guy hits you end up losing more money.
Terrible fold against a maniac like George. His chances of flopping trips are < 2% . I’m calling down and getting it all in on the river here every time!! Thanks for the video
Ok, but loose limp-caller from UTG will have lots of nines in his range, which is strongly represented by his over-donk-bets. Because: 1) why overbet a semi-bluff? 2) what queens does he limp with on UTG? (unless villain is “any two” kinda loose)
Hero got scared of a nine suck-out.
The UTG overall table image, his 150% flop pot overbet, his turn overbet (when heads up??!), and HJ’s hand consistency (Top pair with a top kicker), brick card on turn suggests shove. Just calling is also a bad move. Because he’s just giving a bully chance to improve??). IF he calls here, and a club comes on river and UTG shows his flush, (or a T in this case!!) that would be a fun to watch?!
.
If you lose, so be it. Reload and feed on positive: the info (your opponent hand) you paid for, the message you sent to the opponent and the entire table: I am not to be bullied, you’re sticking to your guns. So, folding on turn is definitely poor play (not just a wrong decision!).
