KQ in CO, too much chase!

[Shami GHC]

I know i played this hand poorly, im really just looking for advice on the flop and turn. Or anything else that sucks about it [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] I rarely chase with a hand like this but for some reason I couldn't convince myself to lay this down. Stack sizes were about 65 for me and 35 or so for villain. Does anyone fold this flop, the turn i feel should have been an automatic fold, but is my flop call ok?

Blinds .25/.5

PRE-FLOP

Villain Limps from EP, EP+2 limps, VERY LAG MP raises to $2, Hero calls with in CO [K [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], Q [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]], Button calls, 1 limper calls.

FLOP - 4 players ($8.75)
board cards 9 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img],A [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img],J [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]

Villain Bets 4$, LAG MP folds, Hero calls, Button calls.

(20.75) TURN 2 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
Villain bets $7, Hero calls $7, Button folds.

(34.75) RIVER 8 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
Villain is all in for $24, Hero Folds.

the more i think about it, the more i HATE my preflop call, even if im certain i had the raising MP LAG beat

why not raise the flop?

he obviously doesn't have the flush.

Thanks, I kinda blocked on this hand. Woulda made my decision much easier on the turn, or right then if he came over the top [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]. And free card on turn maybe so I like betting flop. Ill assume a raise to 10-12 would be alright, since he would be at a decision for his stack.

thanks for help

typically I would fold preflop even against a lag.

And I'm not even sure the raise the flop is the best line but I think its better than calling down.

Actually I'm fine with the call down. You weren't getting exact pot odds to catch the straight / flush, but close enough if you factor in implied odds.

Or you could raise him on the flop, fold to push. Check through if he calls.
