Hand converted by PokerTracker 4

Hero (SB): 100 BB
BB: 146.5 BB (VPIP: 17.78, PFR: 15.56, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 47)
UTG: 50.5 BB (VPIP: 71.43, PFR: 14.29, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 7)
MP: 143.5 BB (VPIP: 28.57, PFR: 28.57, 3Bet Preflop: 33.33, Hands: 7)
CO: 100 BB (VPIP: 16.67, PFR: 16.67, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 7)
BTN: 117.5 BB (VPIP: 42.86, PFR: 14.29, 3Bet Preflop: 0.00, Hands: 7)

Hero posts SB 0.5 BB, BB posts BB 1 BB

Pre Flop: (pot: 1.5 BB) Hero has J♠ Q♠

fold, fold, fold, BTN raises to 3 BB, Hero calls 2.5 BB, fold

Flop: (7 BB, 2 players) 6♠ 7♠ Q♦
Hero bets 4 BB, BTN raises to 12 BB, Hero raises to 97 BB and is all-in, BTN calls 85 BB

Turn: (201 BB, 2 players) 2♣

River: (201 BB, 2 players) Q♥

Hero shows J♠ Q♠ (Three of a Kind, Queens)
(Pre 51%, Flop 30%, Turn 18%)
BTN shows 7♦ 7♣ (Full House, Sevens full of Queens)
(Pre 49%, Flop 70%, Turn 82%)
BTN wins 194 BB

I have trouble with my decisions here. First at all, this move seems correct to me, because I've got top pair with solid flush draw, but then I lost whole stack. I guessed villain range to any top pair, two pairs and sets (He'd never call all in with draw) I don't know if my move was correct or if I should call or fold there?
btw: Villain is typical TAG 2NL guy who plays "fit or fold"

I think you played it fine. Your hand dominates FD while blocking it at the same time and have outs against a stronger range like his. So, for 100BB, I wouldn't lose sleep over this one unless you have uber reads that the villain only plays the nuts.

Id very likely take a call flop and turn line .I mean your never going to be in terrible shape but it just feels unnecessary to take this line with this hand. I'm far more inclined to jam hands like 8s9s Ts8s possibly AsJs AsTs draws that have a'lot of equity and some fold equity but no showdown value on the flop.

That's actually a bit of a concern for us we would prefer him to have more draws rather than less.

this hand plays amazing by check/calling flop turn and deciding on river. your line only isolates yourself against better hands

I don't see a reason to donk this hand, as said above this works well as check call OTF&OTT.
Against that raise it is call or fold, shoving is a bad idea. You will isolate yourself against sets, 2pair and overpairs. You also block some of the draws he could have so it means his flop raise is stronger.

BTN is raising multiway. This means he is storng. Hence I would just call OTF and event. OTT and try to hit my flush.
