Default How should I play this?

This is my first hand here at the forums and I hope this is correct.

This was the 8th hand I played at this table. I did not have a read on the Villains play yet.

FullTilt .25 - .50 10 handed table (8 players seated).

Hero is CO with 6 [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 6 [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
(7 players)

UTG limps, MP1 folds, MP2 calls, MP3 folds, Hero calls, Villain calls, SB calls, BB checks.

Flop: (6SB) 5 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 6 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] Q [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
SB bets, BB folds, UTG raises, MP2 folds, Hero re-raises, Villain caps, SB calls, UTG calls.

Turn: (11BB) 2 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
SB checks, UTG checks, Hero bets, Villain raises, SB calls, UTG folds, Hero re-raises, Villain calls SB calls.

River: (20BB) Q [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
SB Checks, Hero bets, Villain raises, Hero ??

I welcome all opinions about how to play this hand. If there is interest I will post the results later.
Thank you

Looks good. Call the river - if he has the slightest handreading clue he can't think trip Q's are good.

Raise. You have the 5th nuts and anyone with flush, straight, or lower full house will give you more money. He's been pushing his hand pretty hard. Sure you may lose to Q5s once in a while, but you will be payed off by AQ, KQ, AA, KK, 55 every time. Don't be afraid to extract more money.

Raise it up. You most likely have the best hand, and he's not folding.

AA/KK? He overlimped several people preflop, slowed down on the turn and then woke back up after the second Q appeared and a flush came in. That's a pretty absurd hand to put him on. I thought 55 was the most likely hand initially but his combination of calling the turn 3bet and then raising the Q river is kind of weird for that hand. I still probably raise but I don't think calling is a huge mistake or anything.

Raise it up, I'll wager 2BB that an unknown at .25/.50 is less than a genius.

raise.
You may lose to Qx (x=2,5,6), but you make money from lower full house, backdoor hearts and AQ.
