I agree with the others regarding the flop raise being bad, but I think calling the turn bet here is even worse.

What hands will he donk lead with on the turn here that you beat?

Yeah, SB put his Q+ face up on the turn. He probably has JJ and putting you on a Q so figures you're never folding.

reraising OTF is an absolute disaster and so is calling OTT. You are blocking lots of villains draws and villain is never playing Jx like this. his Qx is basically face up OTT

To be fair, a LAG/maniac could have JJ here. But yes, I otherwise agree. This is Qx almost every time.

In either case, OP is still losing. Save your money and move on.
