Default QQ overpair - villain betting into me

What do you think of this line? Overly passive? SB is 22/14/2.1 and a reasonable player. For this session I'm 20/12/7.

Full Tilt Poker
No Limit Holdem Ring game
Blinds: $0.05/$0.10
9 players
Converter

Stack sizes:
UTG: $6.20
UTG+1: $39.50
MP1: $10
Hero: $18.80
MP3: $3.55
CO: $14.05
Button: $10.50
SB: $9.50
BB: $8.50

Pre-flop: (9 players) Hero is MP2 with Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]
UTG calls, 2 folds, <font color="#cc0000">Hero raises to $0.5</font>, 3 folds, SB calls, 2 folds.

Flop: 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] 6[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] ($1.2, 2 players)
SB checks, <font color="#cc0000">Hero bets $0.8</font>, SB calls.

Turn: 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] ($2.8, 2 players)
<font color="#cc0000">SB bets $1.25</font>, Hero calls.

River: 4[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] ($5.3, 2 players)
<font color="#cc0000">SB bets $3</font>, Hero calls.

Results:
Final pot: $11.3

I'd probably bet more like $1 on the flop and raise the turn.

I didn't play this level for a long time, but as far as I remember, I reraised these flop bets on these flops all-in every time and I got calls from TPXK, flush draws, overcards and random junk more tham 75% of the time. Of course, sometimes you loose running into a set. Sometimes! But I could live with that!

Ok, you have played the Queens weak preflop. The other player may have not even put you on a pair let alone a good pair. I would suggest 4xBB at least. However with a flop such as this he is itchin for you to let him see those cards as cheap as possible.(he may have hit top pair with A/K or 2 pair tho but likely is on a good draw) So your bets are absolutly correct - he isnt geting the odds to call. Though a little more PF and F would be better. Th three is very tricky - i am not sure about how to go about playing that. But when he comes betting at you on the river 4Hearts hes got his flush/straight at least. And a pretty damn god bluffin opurtunity playin on your passive preflop/flop action. You did the same as i would have and called, but we both know we should have folded coz then hes made the mistake of calling through the hand -(if he is on the draw).
Because we paid him off tho he was right to call those bad odds esp. for a river be doubling the pot.

5xBB raise with one limper is pretty standard pre-flop and isn't playing it weak.

I need to be convinced why I should raise this turn.

The real question is whether I should fold this river.

There's nothing in the posting guidelines saying this is a short-handed forum - what makes you think it is?
