Noob mistake. Need general advice on dealing with shoves/all-ins.
Blinds: $0.01/$0.02 (6 Players)
BN: $0.67
SB: $2.00
BB: $8.51
UTG: $2.59 (Hero)
MP: $4.96
CO: $1.68
SB: $2.00

CO: $1.68
Preflop

Hero is UTG with

The open was slightly out of my opening range UTG (from FTGU course), but I think it still was a decent hand to open with
Flop
($0.15)
A
Q

Turn

I think at this point I should have folded given the turn cut any chance of straight.

Now I wasn't sure here. I assumed that if he had pocket Q or 8, he would have bet higher. I also forgot that if he had pocket Q or 8 that would make a full house (noob mistake) so I thought my hand was probably the nuts and he had 2 pair or simply a set. I didn't even consider pocket 2 because, although that's in his range, it didn't connect with the flop and he still C-bet.
Final Pot
UTG
lost and shows three of a kind, Aces.
CO wins and shows a full house, Deuces full of Aces.
CO wins $3.27
Rake is $0.12

I think this beat was mostly a mistake of forgetting how full houses work lol. I still welcome any input on when it should have been a fold on my part, or anything related to bet sizing...
I do have a more general question regarding dealing with shoves. I find that many players tend to shove a lot, which I think is in part based on the fact that we are playing for pennies. However, I'm never sure how to deal with them and which hands are worth calling an all-in with, both pre and post-flop.
If you have any advice on how to deal with shoves (or know any video that deals with those cases) I'd really appreciate!
