NL5z - QTd In a 3bet Pot

Blinds: $0.02/$0.05 (6 Players) BN: $11.61
SB: $6.26 (Hero)
BB: $6.78
UTG: $5.40
MP: $5.64
CO: $9.08
Preflop ($0.07) Hero is SB with T Q
UTG folds, MP raises to $0.15, CO folds, BN calls $0.15, Hero raises to $0.80, BB folds, MP calls $0.65, BN folds
squeeze too loose here? Mp ranges can be fairly tight sometimes in zoom and with a caller to get through maybe this squeeze slightly ambitious? one of those hands that are too good to fold but I don't like flatting and give BB opportunity to squeeze. Opinions on the squeeze?
Flop ($1.80) Q 7 K
Hero checks, MP bets $1.20, Hero calls $1.20
folding flop seems criminal given V can have some AsX hands and other flush draws that might choose to play aggro.
Turn ($4.20) Q 7 K 9
Hero checks, MP bets $3.64 and is all in, Hero folds
Given my logic on the flop does a turn fold make sense here? V can still have all these suited A combos that may play this way. 9 is a bad turn since some JT that may play this way gets there, although we block JTd. My reason for folding here was that I can just be dead so often or be up against some combo draws that have a tone of equity against me.
Final Pot MP wins $4.03
Rake is $0.17

Opinions on how I played this hand in general and the comments I have made? any feedback appreciated :)

QTs is a borderline squeeze against 17% open and a call. I have in my ranges QTs as a fold but JTs and KTs as a 3bet but it's not like QTs is much worse or anything. Probably sometimes +EV and sometimes not depending on the two other players and how well you play postflop vs them.

Postflop is played fine, but make sure not to always cbet Kx and check Qx. If you want to have a checking range you need to mix all kinds of hands into both lines. You can also just cbet everything with a small size like 33% pot, and then the difficult street you need to mix a lot is on the turn after betting flop.

cheers, I definitely have some combo draws that I would check raise on this board and might check raise with KK and QQ sometimes although I think I will be very far from balanced in this spot.

well played, squeeze is somewhat standard depending what type of range you prefer to play when you get called. Suited broadways is quite good, sc as well
