Re: Stud/8 Touney Hand - River bluff?

One thought I had looking back was that betting 6th when I caught the Q might have worked better.

Of 4th, 5th and 6th, 6th is the one street you definitely shouldn't have bet. There's no point. What hand could you have the a queen helped? That card was a complete brick for you, and you're not going to convince her otherwise.
4th and 5th are where you should have been showing aggression. A bet on 4th almost certainly picks up the pot right there. If not, you still have a nice hand, compared to what she has.
On 5th, a raise has the slight possibility of winning right away, but more importantly, you've got a really good two way hand at this point, and I'd have no objections to getting as much money as I can into the pot here, with two cards to come. You have 4 to a wheel and an A high flush draw. She most likely has a pair of jacks and a 3 card low. Get your remaining chips in with the best of it.
