Default 20NL - flopped set, turn brings possible straight

I'm trying to switch from limit to NL. I think I made the right decisions (except maybe for my smallish turn bet). I think I was correct in calling the turn raise. I'm pretty sure I'm facing a straight here but I have immediate odds to call the raise hoping for a full house. I would like to know what you think my play should be on the river. Should I let it go or call down?

Villain is 45/36/2.5 over 120 hands.

Noble Poker 0.10/0.20, hand converted by the iPoker Converter at Talking-Poker

saw flop | <font color="#C00000">saw showdown</font>

Button <font color="#C00000">Button ($36.14)</font>
SB ($11.83)
BB <font color="#C00000">Hero ($18.90)</font>
UTG ($22.64)

Preflop: Hero is in the BB with Q [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] Q [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
1 fold, Button raises to 0.60, 1 fold, Hero raises to 1.50, Button calls 1.10.

Flop (3.50) 5 [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] Q [img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] T [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
Hero bets 3.00, Button calls 3.00.

Turn (9.50) J [img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]
Hero bets 3.00, Button raises to 6.00, Hero calls 3.00.

River (21.50) 6 [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
Hero checks, Button bets 8.00, Hero???

You think you're up against a straight? He could only have had AK, K9, or 89 to turn a straight; all of those are gutshot draws that would most likely need a spade draw along with them to justify a call. Of these, K9 and 89 probably fold preflop to your 3-bet, so only AK spades (which I think would 4bet you preflop, especially a 45/36) are likely holdings.

I think a hand like QJ, Q10, or something like pair/spade draw are more commmon.

hate the turn bet, just looks like weakness. Bet like ~6.5-7.5. I shove turn, trying to get as much money in as possible.

As played, shove river. It's a complete blank. When you check, 2pr hands probably assume they are good here. Who knows, Villain could even have donk-called the flop with JJ.

Reraise more PF - like $2 or something.

Flop is fine.

Turn, bet $6.5 and push over his minraise. It's likely that he has 2 pair or a smaller set and if he hit his gutshot then we'll just have to re-suckout.

As played call River (that puts you AI doesn't it?).
