    Reads: Guy is spewwy, bet sizing is weird bets like random numbers, seems a bit loose

    did you not think about this hand at all? seems like ur just throwing chips in for the heck of it? when you bet the river, youre only getting called by a better hand. any K, any T, any flush. So i'm not sure what you're betting for here? value? is it a bluff??? why not check behind on end? where is he calling 75 and losing?? you played this quite bad and with zero thought.

    Why are you ruling out the flush? K, T or two hearts have you beat. I see very few other hands in his range that you beat.

    Check behind on the river. What hands are you getting value from in a 1/2 game?

    Turn -- I would rather check behind on the turn and call a river bet than bet/fold the turn (assuming you were to get raised).

    Agree with Tyson 100%. Check back the turn and if you think you might be best, call a bet. That line produces much more value than trying to bet for thin value, and sometimes you'll get check raised off the best hand, sometimes check raised for value, and sometimes flatted by the best hand. QQ is just not that strong on this board to be value betting, so check calling and keeping the pot smaller is much better.

    In answer to your question, fold. You're getting about 8.5 to 1 pot odds which is pretty good but the other guy has to be dumb enough to think a bluff is possible with that much already in the pot and you with only $55 left.

    Ditto on everything else that's been said.
