    The 8 of spades is an ugly card there. A lot of hands just hit draws with it.

    I question what your thought process is though to flat calling the flop. My experience in low limit games, more times than not, a flop leadout by a caller is weakness. You are going to c-bet 90% of the time, so if they have a queen and just hit (unless it's a weak queen), they want you to pay them off.

    If your in this spot again, I'd raise that flop to 300. Now, he calls that and then pushes the turn, you can safely fold

    As played, pretty easy fold. There is no way you can rationally call here, your beating absolutely nothing other than a stone cold bluff (which he set up perfectly by calling a preflop raise and betting out the flop and getting a perfrect bluffing turn card. Just fold the hand and be happy you didn't lose more.

    You have to fold the turn to a shove.

    If it were me I would:
    1. Raise it more preflop, Qx might still call, but who knows.
    2. Raise/fold the flop, flatting leaves you vulnerable.
