I guess betting less on the flop was much better play though.. but the presense of three clubs made my decision very difficult on the turn as I thought the villian could shove with any JJ QQ AA AK AQ with one club...Does anybody fold the turn as played?
Ironically, the deeper you are the LESS you should be betting preflop and on the flop, especially out of position. Somewhere around 200BB, the rules change about what types of hands you should be willing to get all your chips into the middle with, and concepts like pot control and speculative preflop hand ranges become much more important.
At typical 100BB stacks, this is an instacall; at 200BB, this is a tough but necessary fold against most opponents (IMHO.)
By the way, Semoleus gives an EXCELLENT discussion on deeper stacked play in his Cash Plays podcast interview:
