2♥ 8♠ Q♠

With position, a spade backdoor, and 43% equity, folding against a single c-bet gives up too much equity.

Flop Analysis

Calling is the preferred play here over folding. In position with a spade redraw and sufficient equity against UTG's continuation-betting range, folding immediately surrender too much value.

Note: Folding here over-folds our range; we have direct pot odds, position, and over 40% equity against UTG's barreling range.
