Do I have a value bet? Or check and call? Bet/fold? Help!

I probably would have check/folded the turn. With 3 overcards and potential straight and flush draws I think you are behind and have 3 outs to the non-spade queens.

i might lame out on the turn and check/fold, but if i get to the river i think i play it the same as you. although maybe bet/fold is better? i don't know.

I don't think that's necessariliy lame. This was pretty much a desperation bet. I was folding to a raise.

Durr. I didn't even notice my straight outs. That almost makes calling a turn raise correct. But not quite.

But since you played the turn, I would check/call 1 bet as well. Without any fold equity here I don't think bet/fold is the best choice. This at least gives you the option to fold to 2 bets back to you.
