Results: $18.85 Pot ($1.85 Rake)
BTN showed Ahttp://www.legopoker.com/hh/images/diamond.gif A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (a pair of Aces) and LOST (-$7.90 NET)
SB showed A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] Ahttp://www.legopoker.com/hh/images/club.gif (a pair of Aces) and LOST (-$3.05 NET)
Hero showed J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] Jhttp://www.legopoker.com/hh/images/diamond.gif (a straight, Queen high) and WON $17 (+$9.10 NET)

The only defense I have is the SB had gone all in about 3 times in the past 10 hands.

According to your defense, you outplayed the SB and sucked out on the button. nh

Fold to the BTN 5-bet for $0.90, this is like AA always.

Nope. I'd fold KK in that spot too.

QFT. I may even fold AA to reduce variance.

Yeah, some one might have suited connector and outdraw you.
