How would I play it? I would call down.

How should I play it? I should probably fold.

that sounds reasonable as well - I never take these lines, but maybe I should start

This might be a good spot for this. I used to take this line in spots like this pretty frequently, but realized I got raised like every time [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

I disagree, I think this is fine to check-call down. We don't know much about this guy post-flop, so he could be doing this with any Queen, as well as a hand like AT,JT,AJ.

It's going to cost us 5 more SB's to win 12. You think we are good often enough here?

I think it's pretty close. Maybe some sort of read would help to sway it one way or another.

3-bet the flop and then re-evaluate. Don't make a habit of flop raises shutting you down, if that makes any sense.

I don't think that makes much sense. Why would we want to put in more money when we are more than likely to be behind in the hand? Hero raised PF and Button coldcalled. The flop came KQx, Hero bet and Button raised. Sure this could mean JT or QJ sometimes, but I think we are behind more often than not.
