Default Wild,wooly, (and awkward) AQo hand from UTG+1 20BB deep

First hand post. Be gentle

$4/180 Stars

Relatively new at table. No reads, other than BB has somehow worked his way into a massive stack.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t150 (8 handed) internettexasholdem.com

Button (t1630)
SB (t1680)
BB (t10845)
UTG (t2390)
Hero (t2990)
MP1 (t1340)
MP2 (t290)
CO (t4157)

Preflop: Hero is UTG+1 with Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to t450</font>, <font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Button raises to t1630 and is all-in</font>, <font color="#666666">1 fold</font>, BB calls t1480, Hero ???

BB/bigstack's overcall is what really throws a wrench in my thinking and makes this an interesting hand (in my opinion, anyway).

Hero calls t1180.

Flop: (t4965) 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">BB bets t9215 (All-In)</font>, I really, really, really want to fold here. I'm beat. But I'm committed and I'm getting ~4:1, yes? Or does anyone find a fold?

Hero calls t1360 (All-In).

Turn: (t15540) Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players, 2 all-in)</font>

River: (t15540) 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(3 players, 2 all-in)</font>

Final Pot: t15540
<font color="#009B00">Main Pot: t7685 (t7685), between BB and Hero.</font> &gt; <font color="#FFFFFF">Pot won by Hero (t7685).</font>
<font color="#009B00">Pot 2: t7855 (t7855), returned to BB.</font>

Results in white below: <font color="#FFFFFF">
BB has Kd Ah (one pair, fives).
Hero has Qh Ac (two pair, queens and fives).
Button has Kh Jh (one pair, fives).
Outcome: BB wins t7855. Hero wins t7685. </font>
