Hey, is QQ54s trash or not, for an UTG range? What is actually the bottom limit of an UTG range in loose passive game, with just 1 or 2 nits at the table and with fish in the blinds?

Trusting the principle 'When you don't know what to do, fold', I should have probably folded the flop. I just know about my opponent that he generally just keeps betting, but I didn't see any of his cards. I had no plan for the turn or the river, and finally decided to stick to the 'Fold' decision, but it was just instinct, had nothing to do with strategy.

You have 5 outs vs A5xx so I think you have to fold here vs a nit. However a nit might also be checking raising small with AA+ spade redraw.

I don't mind a fold here at all to be honest since if you keep playing you win a small pot or lose a whole buyin by the way the hand will play out.
Whatever you choose to do, you need to make your decision on the flop (either 3 betting or folding). Calling down just lets opponents with draws improve cheaply when it's very unlikely you will hit a full house yourself.
