Default 2pair, horrible flop.

A bit lost on this hand.
This is my 2nd orbit at the table, no applicable reads.

Party Poker 1/2 Hold'em (6 max, 6 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is BB with T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, MP calls, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, Button calls, SB completes, Hero checks.

Flop: (4 SB) T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">SB bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, <font color="#CC3333">MP 3-bets</font>, Button folds, SB calls, Hero calls.

Turn: (6.50 BB) 7[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
SB checks, Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">MP bets</font>, SB calls, Hero calls.

River: (9.50 BB) 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
SB checks, Hero checks, <font color="#CC3333">MP bets</font>, SB calls, Hero calls.

Is this overcall horrible? I wasnt going to call if a 4th [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] hit and obviously if SB raises.

Final Pot: 12.50 BB

SB doesnt have the jack or the flush. MP possibly flopped a set of 9s, pair of Qs, a low flush, or the idiot straight. I think you are probably beat, but I hate not protecting my hand here. I probably checkraise the turn and fold to a 3bet, although some may suggest calling to see a showdown for the same price.

This is fine I see no fold there. I think a checkraise on the turn would be good you are most likely ahead and you can charge the draws extra. Once the 8 hits on the river its just call down in most cases.
