Preflop is terrible....FOLD!

I'd check/shove this flop.

You either check and get it in on the turn or push it in now since the pot is bigger than your stack.

I agree that the prefop call is marginal but this has to be the worst run of starting hands ive seen in a while. no spots to do anything. pretty much folded every hand till i had $750 and doubled with QQ. very torn on best flop play here.

Fold preflop definitely, it isn't marginal, it's a super blatant fold. On flop, just bet close to pot size and obviously call a shove, unless you think this preflop raiser is definitely going to bet for you. On turn, easy shove. If you are calling almost 25% of your stack with this preflop, and then having second thoughts when you flop 2 pair, what exactly where you trying to hit?
