Default Re: Badly Played Hand? You be the Judge

Sure, fold isn't a bad option, but SB may simply hit trips with a 3, going wild. I would call the river.

This is the opposite of "monsters under the bed" syndrome, perhaps "fairies and spice under the bed" syndrome? I doubt SB is sticking around with a tiny pair given the action so far, so it is far more likely that you are shown a jack here and lose the hand. SSH advocates calling liberally on the river, but only for one bet. Cold calling SB's check/raise is a bad move; a set of queens is not good 10% of the time here.
