Default 3/6 hu hand vs. semi-unknown

only played with the guy for a little at 6max but he didn't do anything of note although i get the feeling he may be slightly donkish. anyway, here's the hand, thoughts on river bet? i think the other 3 decisions are ridic standard and what's your play if you get c/r'd?

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em, $6 BB (2 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: 2+2 Forums)

Hero ($611.20)
BB ($926.90)

Preflop: Hero is Button with J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img].
<font color="#CC3333">Hero raises to $18</font>, BB calls $12.

Flop: ($36) Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 4[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $30</font>, BB calls $30.

Turn: ($96) 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $72</font>, BB calls $72.

River: ($240) 3[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
BB checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets $150</font>(i have ~$391 left after my bet)

I like the river bet, but would fold to a push. I dont give unknowns credit for pulling moves like that, especially when you very well could have the Q.

[/ QUOTE ]

i thought it was possible he had a hand like 55-jj with a spade, and felt like it was worth trying to get a call out of those hands. i also felt like he will have a lower flush from time to time albeit rarely, but i didn't think he would have a queen very often at all. i think a player like this raises a queen either on the flop or on the turn. i would think if he missed a flop raise he would raise the turn to 'protect his hand' while with a flush he would be content with slowplaying because his hand is already made. anyone agree with these assumptions or have anything to add? if you disagree say why...

fwiw my assumptions were based on him being a below average player or a donk, which i feel like most unknowns are at these levels ime.

I think I like this play, but I'd be worried if he turned up with JJs ;-)

I also think he would have to raise a Q in here somewhere to protect. That being said, I like it.
