Think I could've made the money if I just folded every hand? I was about 5th in chips, but the blinds were pretty high.

read on BB?

probably just better to shove or fold pre. Also the other stack sizes (I guess there is another table?) are important.

I would bet way less on the flop and unless he's totally crazy just give up from there, you don't beat anything and he isn't folding anything that beats you. Even if he has TT he decided to call the turn when he called your flop bet.

Lets see, there are 7 players left right?
How many tickets? Whats your position, whats the table like, what is avg?
All this info is crucial.
And what kind of player is bb? Will he fold to a raise? if not better all-in or fold here.

There are lots of other things that matter a lot here, such as your table image, your reads, what buy-in level and so on. As so often its situational, and you left out just about all crucial info about the hand.
