Fold. Preflop is fine, your flop bet should be at least $1, you giving the whole table odds to draw at you. Bet more on the flop, lead the turn, as played i say fold.

call

i folded. there was too many staying in it for me and i didnt trust the queens enough. i figured someone had KK or AA. even though i was wrong i still woulda been beat. reraiser had A4 and hit their straight the other one had AJ clubs and chased the flush and hit another club on the river.

Looks a correct fold to me - looks like you were in the fish tank unless the A4 was suited i.e. no respect for your pre-flop raise. With that flop, you've got to bet the pot on the flop to protect your queens from chasers.

Yeah, definitely bet more on the flop. Great fold.

At that micro level, you have to at least bet double the average in order to get some sort of respect for your bets with premium hands.
