I don't like pre-flop (KQ is a trap hand and you are OOP).

With TP type of hands I'm looking for 2 streets of value, generally betting 3 streets is overplaying the hand. In your situation I can see betting the turn to deny him to take then initiative as well as betting the river to prevent an all-in bluff if he is playing the board. I would be slightly smaller on the river, though (maybe 3.5ish).

2 streets of value, ok I could try to keep that i mind

I played that session 25/20/5.6, and that guy was directly to my right so I have a hard time knowing how my image affects villain's play.

And yes, I consciously decided to bet "small" on the river but maybe I should have aimed smaller

As for my OOP call, I usually don't do that, but we were deepstacked so I felt I could open up my game and try to flop 2-pair or better. But then I forgot about my plan and decided to gogogo with my pair.

I believe this is one of the biggest leaks for us micro-players.

I've started calling with these hands preflop versus wide button raises. You need to put less money in the pot after that Js hits on the turn. Worst card ever. I think I'd only put $3 more max into the pot once that thing hits. Either bet turn, check fold river or check turn block bet river.
