Default AQ unmiproved in a big pot

Check-raiser is a seemingly solid player. The guy who bet out on the flop can be a bit crazy. I hate folding this hand, but can I really be ahead? There must be a better way to play this.

Party Poker 3/6 Hold'em (6 max, 5 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is MP with A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
UTG calls, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, Button calls, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, BB calls, UTG calls.

Flop: (8.33 SB) 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(4 players)</font>

Your turn and river plays are inconsistent. What hand does he check/3bet on the flop, that you are live against on the turn, that you are now behind on the river?

This is tricky. I'm trying to put the BB on a hand, unless he is semi-bluffing a straight/flush draw, I think you are way behind and don't have odds to draw to your overcards/gutshot on the turn and should fold. If you think he was getting aggressive with a draw, you should call the turn and the river. Personally I fold the turn.

At the time I figurd that by calling the turn, he would expect me to call the river. I guess I felt he wouldn't be able to fire a 3rd barrel with a hand I beat (since it looked like I was going to call down). Looking back, I think I'm just stupid... but I'm still not sure what line I like.

I fold the Turn. BB might have quads or a full house now. He might have an ace which will you will chop with if the gutshot comes in and he might have two clubs which can beat you.
