Default NL50 - AQ river action

Villain is 24-18 and we are both double stacked (me 90$ villain 89$) Comments on flop and turn would help, but the most important is the river action.

Prima Poker skin
No Limit Holdem Ring game
Blinds: $0.25/$0.50
6 players
Converter

Pre-flop: (6 players) Hero is Button with Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]
<font color="#cc0000">UTG raises to $2</font>, 2 folds, Hero calls, 2 folds.

Flop: Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 2[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] ($4.75, 2 players)
<font color="#cc0000">UTG bets $4</font>, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises to $12</font>, UTG calls.

Turn: 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] ($28.75, 2 players)
UTG checks, <font color="#cc0000">Hero bets $18</font>, UTG calls.

River: 5[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] ($61.75, 2 players)
UTG checks, Hero ?

Stacks would help. Assuming 100 bbs you already have 32/50 in there his line really looks like top pair so I dont see anything wrong with getting the rest in here. I dont think the turn and river improved him unless he is a complete idiot.

In a vacuum, with these descriptions, I'm betting and extracting value. Have you C/R'ed him on such a dry flop before?

Assuming you have somewhere around a PSB left, I'm fine with getting it all in here. I can't see him checking the river with a hand that you beat here. Shove it all in and hope QK calls you.

Do we really think that a 24-18 calls our flop raise with KQ?

as played I'd go to valuetown on the river, but I would seriously consider checking behind on the turn for some pot control. I could be completely wrong here as I'm starting to worry I don't get enough value on my winning hands to make up for the coolers.

Am I correct in check checking the turn given the deep stacks?

Why are you raising the flop? That's as dry a flop as you'll get, and you let lower pockets off the hook too easy or deny him a chance to double barrel. Plus, no better hand is folding, and you give him a chance to get away from a weaker Q on later streets.
Also, the fact that you're nearly 200BBs deep makes a stronger argument for calling flop.
