Default Playing pair of Q in stud8

I have a lot of reads here... mostly this table is slightly too loose, and some people like seeing the river down with hopeless hands, yelling at the other he is a donk for playing that and that hand.
Seat 3 just loooves high pairs. He is willing to reraise 3rd with a pair of jacks to a lower card and seems to have bad starting hand selection although understanding the game sort of well sometimes.
Seat 6 plays a very weak game. He is loose-passive, and for instance I just saw him checking behind a pair of aces and a 7-5 on the river which was a scoop for a $160 pot.
Seat 7 is an aggro donk.

Now, to the hand I feel like I might have played this too weak and hence [censored] it up on every street. I just hate investing a lot of money into a high pair that isn't aces in this game, so I feel uncomfortable playing in this spot. General advice appreciated

Default Re: Playing pair of Q in stud8

i'd consider reraising 3rd given descriptions.

4th, even tho seat 6 cud be checking pair of aces, id still bet because i'd like to thin the field as much as possible. and he cud have a lot of other crap under there too.

5th to 6th std
