I don't think he's playing the straight this strongly but I wouldn't doubt something like AQ. Good fold.

I think this is a fold. The villain is not very aggresive and if you haven't seen him do anything like this i would guess you are not ahead more than 1 in 4 times. I also think there are only three reasonable hands for villain to hold that beat you. He could have AQ, AK, TJs. With his low pre flop raise i think there is a good chance he just calls with all of these, ever AK. I think he might play a straight like this.

I don't think you need to raise so much on the flop though. I think betting $15 would be just as good without risking so much. I don't think there are that many hands you can get a lot of value out of on this flop anyways. I think any hand you beat can probably get away when you raise.

I think calling might induce another bet from some weaker hands. I think if you call the flop you should probably call the turn or make a value bet if checked to. I think if he leads all three streets the river will be a tough decision.

I could be way off here. Someone better than me please comment on what i said.

The fold looks good to me.

Actually, I would have folded one street sooner. Is KQo really a hand we want to be cold-calling with? Villain made what was basically a standard-size opening raise from MP.

Fold is definitely the right move, IMO. Good job.

What do you beat? QQ, KK, AA, AK, AQ, 10J are all within his range. The only hand you're ahead of is A-10 and that's only 60-40 with this flop. A fold is mandatory.
