Default TPTK vs fish with difficult decision

Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $ BB (4 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)

Hero ($283.45)
SB ($119.55)
BB ($200.80)
UTG ($351.60)

Preflop: Hero is Button with Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. SB posts a blind of $1.
UTG calls $2, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $10</font>, SB (poster) calls $9, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, UTG calls $8.

Flop: ($32) 9[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
SB checks, UTG checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $22</font>, SB folds, <font color="#CC3333">UTG raises to $49</font>, Hero calls $27.

Turn: ($130) 9[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">UTG bets $100</font>, Hero ???

Villain is 40/20/1.5 over about 50 hands. How is my flop play? I can see a case for fold raise and call tbh. Turn action???

Donkeys usualy have a hand that beats top pair when they raise. Depends on how he play one pair hands but without a better read I fold turn

I generally fold the flop without a decent read, especially with you guys being almost 150bbs deep and you'll rarely get to showdown without risking your stack likely behind. I just don't like this spot at all. Calling to fold to an inveitable turn bet with little chance of improving and a decent chance you're drawing dead seems spewy.

Cliff notes = fold flop, 1 pair no good.

If he's a fish, insta muck turn. Flop is fine.

I generally decide on the flop if I am planning on going to showdown. If not I just fold.
