Default Should I bet the turn, river?

Villian is 31/21/2.2...I was tilting a bit and made a bad p/f raise...I was curious how y'all handled a non-ace in this situation...

Party Poker 10/20 Hold'em (6 max, 6 handed) FTR converter on zerodivide.cx

Preflop: Hero is UTG with J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img].
<font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, <font color="#666666">4 folds</font>, BB calls.

Flop: (4.50 SB) 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, BB calls.

Turn: (3.25 BB) 9[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets</font>, BB calls.

River: (5.25 BB) 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
BB checks, Hero checks.

Final Pot: 5.25 BB

doubt you win by checking. I'd bet the river as well.

I think, you should take the free card on the turn. Once he check/calls the flop, I think he has something he wants to showdown or something he is waiting to pop on the turn (I doubt this opponent will just check/call a flushdraw on this board).

Since I don't think he has a flushdraw, I'm not betting the river either.

BTW, I don't think the preflopraise is necesserally "bad". QJ is borderline UTG, and I could go either way depending on the situation.

EDIT: Also getting checkraised on the turn would put you in a tough spot, since you picked up a gutshot, and the pot is still not very big.

So I should be consistent...if I bet the turn I should bet the river... and if I check the turn be prepared to dump the hand ui.
