I think the flop ch/r is fine, there are too many bad turn cards, I have to protect my vulnerable top pair, OTT my plan was bet/fold, and OTR I think I'd call his bet up to half pot but in this case I thought that I had to fold.
(We have no info about villain.)

What do you think?

PokerStars - $0.02 NL (6 max) - Holdem - 5 players
Hand converted by PokerTracker 4

UTG: 101.5 BB
CO: 166 BB
BTN: 100 BB
Hero (SB): 229 BB
BB: 152 BB

Hero posts SB 0.5 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.5 BB) Hero has Q♦ T♦

fold, fold, BTN raises to 3 BB, Hero calls 2.5 BB, fold

Flop: (7 BB, 2 players) 7♠ T♥ 8♠
Hero checks, BTN bets 3.5 BB, Hero raises to 10.5 BB, BTN calls 7 BB

Turn: (28 BB, 2 players) Q♠
Hero bets 19.5 BB, BTN calls 19.5 BB

River: (67 BB, 2 players) 8♣
Hero checks, BTN bets 67 BB and is all-in, fold

BTN wins 64.5 BB

I think its played fine. Without info on villain its a fold. The range for shoving that river has you crushed. I think even folding to half pot is okay. Even if he turned KK or AA into a bluff you still beat.

Another approach could be to just call the flop and her-evaluate on further streets. This way you keep the pot smaller. Than I would call villain down most of the time.

As played I would fold the river as well. Tough to beat any value hands.

Fold river, AA, KK, beat you but it is in rnge what villiam would 4 bets, TT, TT, x8s, xx spade beat you too what could be in villiam range.
So big bet on the river could be bluf, but call 67 bb to 133bb is not so bad, but it could pain.

You could raise for protection on the flop....

but i guess but a bit smaller on the turn (round about 10 or 11bb) i guess villain will call or fold the same range....

on rive than i would bet/fold very small (1/4pot) as block an get value from some weaker hands...

Ugly turn. After his call OTT it's an easy fold vs unknown. Even at NL2 with 2 pair these days people seem to be way too solid.
