It doesn't seem like I should be calling unless I can put at least AQs into LP's range, which doesn't seem likely. So then this means I should have just called the original $10 raise?
What did you know about LP and did he seriously consider folding, insta-shove or put on a one act drama? There is a lot of donk psychology here, but some context would help a lot.
BTW: I hate life and probably call this because neither player is convincing me they have QQ+ more often than not and JJ has a bunch of equity here (JJ > AK all-in pre-flop.)

Flop is Qxx giving me TP with nut flush draw, so I check/call $25 cbet. Shorty calls (eff stack with bettor ~$230)
Turn is a K. Shorty pushes $50, the other guys folds, and I call.
You pretty much crush this board so I don't mind your play. Pretty terrible turn card, but you're never folding here for $50 more.
