hero?

I'll tell you now that I folded. But I'm thinking now maybe I should have chased?
pot was $0.9 and villain bet the pot.
I have 8 outs for a str8.
help me with the math here will you.

It seems like I made the right call math wise. But Im not sure.
edit wrong read of hand history.
Its a bellybutton str8 draw and I almost always fold them on the turn if there is a decent bet.

I don't really understand. If you have QJo you have four outs (four tens) to an inside straight draw with the board being K952. From his betting pattern, I'd say villain is bluffing. However, with no additional information or read on him, I would just muck my hand here and wait for a better opportunity to crush him.

Or am I wrong?

sorry, I was ready my hand history incorrectly .
you are right, and indeed it seems like folding was my best move.

ez fold since you only have 4 outs to the str8 and one isn't totally clean as it completes the fulsh (although I doubt he has that draw but even if he doesn't, getting the flush str8 card will limit your ability to profit from your hand).
