I feel here my hand frequent strength is good enough to call, but with being out of position for rest hand i would rather raise here and look take pot down now or at least go into flop with the initiative.
Once BB calls here the range i gave him was: jj-99 Aqs-Ats kts+ qts+ jts+ Aqo-Ato kto+ qjo
I felt his range would be capped, as with still utg original raiser to act he would want 4 bet his top hands. but opened up his 3 bet call range a little as he has position on me but also is on BB, and people seem defend alot wider on here.

I felt board was not to overly wet here, and my hand had hit it stronger than his range. I felt like a value c bet was in order but went for a 1/3 pot size. ( thinking if he had hit board hard he would raise me an if he just calls i should be good here.
On my review tho i think this was fatal error, i gave him odds of 3.8:1 and knowing his hand now that gives his direct 4 outs for a straight odds of 10.75:1 needed but with pot odds i offered he only needs to win 49.5 bb for his implied odds and vs my 3 bet range thats good implied odds. then if he counts his aces as outs as well then thats another 3 outs and a runner runner back door flush i think we could give him yet another out here. so a total of 8 outs needing 4.88:1 needing only 7.5bb to break even. even more doable and a definite call.
once he calls his range to me looks like : jj-99 ajs-ats kts+ qjs+ jts ajo-ato kto+
due to a weak raise i feel he can carry on with more speculative hands although his tptk hands and 2 pair hands i feel would raise for value. ( i feel that although i allow his more speculative hands to call with a small flop bet it should be good most of time as it keeps his range wider an gets him put money in pot while behind )

this turn card hits his range here hard and shows in equity catch up even tho i have 2 pair. This was good for me on review as i didnt notice it while playing. i thought i was even further ahead, i remember thinking A10 is about only thing that can beat us but that cant get here. Although from doing review i find it can. and hopefully now i ll carry this knowledge going forward.
I feel the board has gotten wet and i wouldnt want any more free cards given to drawing hands here and as my relative hand strength is still ok we can go for some thin value/protection here and bet something from 2/3 to pot
Once he calls i give him range of Ats kts+ qts+ Ato kto+

i know i dont have large database on him but from what i can see of wtsd and wwsf they were both just below where you d want them as winning player. Feeling like to me he ends at river not always having the nuts.
i feel here if i bet his range that would call would be ats kjs+ ato kjo+
giving 16 combos that beat us 4 combos we draw to and 6 combos we beat.
but if i check call in a situation like this i feel his whole range i gave him after the turn call would bet if he did bet which would give me 16 combos that beat us 4 combos we draw to and 16 combos that we beat. Giving the situation of a check call being even money or 0ev while a bet from me is minus ev
In game i bet tho :/ still learning!
Hero shows Q

(Straight, Ace High)
(Pre 58%, Flop 27%, Turn 91%)
Hero wins 3 BB
BB wins 203.5 BB
lessons learnt from this either to bet bigger on flop or anticipate hands that i have allowed to continue and not discount them like i did.
and also to find when more combos of better hands will call but i do better by check calling and keeping villains range wider, to keep more combos of what i beat in.
Any feed back on the way i have reviewed this hand would be appreciated. I know ive played hand poorly but getting most out of it is + ev for me in future
