Default QQ utg check raised by 2

No solid reads here. CO is a loose fish playing about 80%, SB is a 28 %er who doesn't raise much preflop. BB is quite tight only playing 12%. I haven't noticed anything special postflop.

I'm wondering If calling here is correct. I think my pot odds are close, but I'm thinking implied odds are tremendous. Getting check raised by 2 got me 95% sure of the flush.

I'm counting 10 outs and discounting 1.5 for the chance someone else has a set for a total of 8.5. How far off am I?

Does anybody fold this?

Thanks,
Ben

I'd say call, fold the river unimproved if there is still a lot of action going on during the river.

That's insane. No way should the hero fold.

You would have to shove a gun in my mouth to make me fold this on the turn. Depending on how passive my opponents are here (it sure as hell looks like someone has a flush), I MIGHT consider folding on the river unimproved. I would have to have one hell of a read, though. I'm definitely showing it down for one bet.

Folding here would be terrible. Unthinkable. This would be a massive error. Hell, if I have 33 here, there's no way in hell I'm folding. Why are you discounting your outs in case someone has a set? You have... the best possible set.

Their check-raises could mean two pair, a lower set or even a donkishly played AA (possible from BB if he's that tight), all of which are drawing dead against you (well the set has 1 out). The flush might be out, but you've got plenty of outs to beat one.

Call the turn and call the river UI.

Because I'm trying to improve my hand. If someone else flopped a set of 3's then they have 2 of my outs to improve. I know I have top set, but I also know I am behind a flush (95%) and need a boat to win.
