Default AQ flops tptk on unscary board, flop gets capped.

SB is laggish, BB is Tight-passive preflop but plays aggressively from then on. My flop 3-bet is standard right? SB's Call/Cap forced me to slow down, but I don't think he has a set often enough for folding to be correct...

It looks fine to me.

SB's flop call/cap is troublesome, but I wouldn't fold.

If things were going for you the way they did at times for me last night, then he had a hand like Q8 or 98.

JT is another annoying possibility (in addition to a monster like 44), but like I said, I wouldn't fold.

I like it.

I would never fold in this hand with these opponents. I would also 3 bet the flop. I would not raise the turn either unless the SB was really, really aggressive. If he was, I would.

I think I might be able to find a river fold here, depending on how laggish the SB is.

A river fold here would be a big mistake in my opinion after calling the flop and turn considering the pot size. Call it down.

Folding the river after calling the turn is pretty ridiculous.

If you were to have a default here it would be to call, but I think there are a number of opponents that overcalling on the river would be unprofitable. I was just pointing out that a river call shouldn't be automatic here, because IMO I as well as many others make these calls too often. Second in my experience these call/cap kind of plays are most likely a monster and sometimes a draw. Well the only draw on the board gets there by the river and finally you are overcalling a BB who could have any two cards checkraised 2 players on the flop. I think you should have a pretty good feel on your opponents to make a fold like this but again I don't think it should be an automatic call.

FWIW, SB shows QT, BB shows QJ, MHIG...
