I think my minraise PF was a bit weak, but I wanted to take control of the hand but was afraid someone might have AA or KK, since the villain was pretty tight and it's not very usual to see reraises at this level.
I checked the turn so that the pot wouldn't get too big in case he had Aces or Kings.
Is my river bet too big? I'm guessing he would still call with smaller PPs, and he might also RR 88-JJ preflop.

In general 3betting pre-flop with QQ is marginal. I don't mind it here. If you are going to raise don't minraise.

This is your dream flop. AA or KK would probably re-raise PF so I wouldn't be to worried. Put out minimum of 1.30.

Turn - bet this. i'd put out 2

River is fine, around 1/2 pot is fairly standard but you might be able to get a little more.
