Default ($24) Two pairs on the river vs. a possible flush BvB. Line check

The villain has been playing pretty passively and wasn't abusing the bubble at all.

Full Tilt Poker
No Limit Holdem Tournament
Blinds: t120/t240
4 players
Converter

Stack sizes:
UTG: t2500
Button: t2400
Hero: t3240
BB: t5360

Pre-flop: (4 players) Hero is SB with J[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]
2 folds, Hero calls t120 <font color="aaaaaa">(pot was t360)</font>, BB checks.

Flop: 2[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] (t480, 2 players)
<font color="#cc0000">Hero bets t240</font>, BB calls t240 <font color="aaaaaa">(pot was t720)</font>.

Turn: 7[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (t960, 2 players)
Hero checks, BB checks.

River: Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (t960, 2 players)
Hero checks, <font color="#cc0000">BB bets t240</font>, Hero calls t240 <font color="aaaaaa">(pot was t1200)</font>.

Meh, I hate this call because it smells so much like a value bet, but I'm getting 5 to 1...

I'm making it more on the flop, turn check is ok I guess, but I definitely value bet the river. Questioning whether or not to c/c a min bet here is insane.

Hmm yeah its bubble but high two pair in such pot should be assumed to be pretty nutsy. Chance he got flush or set is like 1.5%.
2 pair with ace? hmm i guess those would bet turn or reraise flop.
I also bet more on the flop, and value bet river like 1/2-2/5 of pot.

Agreed with sippin, I am looking at 350 minimum on the flop, checking it on the turn hoping to get to showdown as cheap as possible, and probably firing 450 or so for value on the river.
