Ok, naturally i requested time here. My thinking: if I hold the queen, or sometin else that is good, why would I overbet the pot? Now in a livegame, I got stacked by a set once, while holding aces, but I think online this is standard??

yeah ship it. your line of reasoning is good, and i don't really view the Q as an overcard here; it's 3-way only, and there are very very few Q hands villain can flatcall with pre

yep, you are right. especially that there are no draws out there, so villian wouldn't need to protect a Q or set that much.
i have seen villians overbetting with nuts is order to get called (because people will think like you do) but still i think this is pretty standard.
