An inexperienced $1000 will get smoked fast at $50 NL, so stay where you are for now. In that QQ hand, ask yourself what the opponent is calling you with. You have top set, what is his hand that he's going so deep with you? You either have him slaughtered or vice versa. This is not a small edge type hand.
Is he just a fish, or is there a bad reason he calls $6 on the turn. You need to work on pot control against decent players when you hit spots where the only hand that will stack off is one that beats you, and the villain indeed starts stacking off.
When you say you had no idea villain had JT I shook my head a little. The 8 is a make card. You need to know exactly what each successive card does to the hand. Is it a blank. Is it a make? How much fold equity will future cards bring on this flop? Does this turn or river card give me more fold equity? Do I want that equity or not? Does it help me or hurt me?
