Unfortunately i have no real reads. Is this fold standard or too tight? Bet 4th?

Yea I'd dump it. Seat 4 sure likes his hand and the other two guys caught connecting babies, one suited. That's a lousy spot to be in with just a pair of Queens in a 4-way pot. It could get real expensive real quick. I cut my losses and toss it.

From the action on 3rd and 4th, let us know what seat 4's likely hand range is? (assuming he isnt an idiot who cont bets 4'th no matter what hits.)

I guess aces or a low flushdraw makes sense, neither of which is too good for me. I am likely playing only for half the pot anyway.

What he said. I'm more inclined to think a pair >QQ. If so he (Seat 4) needs to bet 4th to try and get rid of Hero whose hand is face-up and also to charge the low draws.

If Hero was HU with the aggressor then folding 4th is way too weak. But being in a 4-handed pot with those boards really stinks.

I think I'd fold here. I really don't like two Queens very much in this spot.

Any reason to even play this hand on third really?

This is a decent hand on third if you can get it heads-up or maybe three-way. Four ways for two bets isn't what you're looking for, that's for sure. The raise was perfectly reasonable.
