Is anyone folding here? BU is paying attention and seen as i have been card dead for a few orbits and i look to be playing like a nit i felt like a 3b would get a lot of respect. When the flop came i felt like i have a mandatory bet seen as BB is a fish but once BU raises who i assume has all 2pairs,88 99 JTs and combo draws i felt that at best im BE to call off.

Yes pre-flop before three bet
use hands that retain equity better.

I just fold this pre. Some suited Q8 combos might be possible to 3bet against high fold to 3bet stats by btn. You probably have to GII with this low SPR OTF against 1 player. Against 2 players, well you can run into 99 and JT some of the time. Considering how loose (bad) some ppl are it is ok to stakc off 3way.

Annoying spot, but I guess we have to go with our hand since the SPR is so small on the flop. I wouldn't 3bet this hand tho, definitely too weak in general.
