Default Did I blow this hand?

Villain is a thinking solid aggro.

I forgot to mention that in a hand about 10mins earlier, he raised PF from button. I call. Flop has 2 diamonds on J93 , I check/call. Check/check turn 5. River was Ace of diamond and I check-raised him 3x. He folded.

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $6 BB (4 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

Hero ($816.50)
SB ($74.10)
BB ($613)
UTG ($624)

Preflop: Hero is Button with Q, Q.
UTG raises to $24</font>, Hero raises to $75</font>, 2 folds</font>, UTG calls $51.

Flop: ($159) 2, J, 5 (2 players)</font>
UTG checks, Hero checks.

Turn: ($159) 2 (2 players)</font>
UTG bets $100</font>, Hero calls.

River: ($359) T (2 players)</font>
UTG bets $125</font>, now what?

Thoughts? I think I messed up here. I decided to play this a little different so I just checked after on the flop since I thought he would bet out turn with any 2. On the turn, should I have raised? I was going to raise but decided to wait till the river to extract more from him since I was worried he might fold to my turn raise. And the board didn't look too bad for me. River he bets out again. Do I just call here or raise since I really under-represent my hand. If raise, how much? I have about 450 Left.

Do you think he calls a raise here with a hand that you beat? If you think he will call here with just a jack, i wouldn't mind a small raise here. Otherwise, just call.

I thought AJ would pay me off and he might call with JQ or JT because of the earlier hand.

no way do you raise here, unless you have a very good read on his play.

you didn't give much info on how this guy plays, but absent that, his river bet looks an awful lot like a value bet to me. maybe he has KJ or AJ and he's making a half-value, half-blocking bet, but your failing to define his hand with a flop bet doesn't give you much info to go on. his play is very consistent with JJ, or even JTs. your holding isn't strong enough to raise without more information to go on.

I have QQ and the turn card paired the bottom card so I beat JTs and I'm already ahead of AJ/KJ.

do you think he's calling your 3 bet OOP preflop with any of these hands?

Yeah I thought about this a little earlier-what he's calling with PF OOP. But his hand was played really weak that I felt like my QQ was the best. Well, I shoved and he showed 55 for full house.

This is a really high variance line, I would just bet the flop. As played call the river, I don't see how you could fold.

raise more preflop...bet flop. As played, call turn for sure and muck to a push on the riv.
