Default Mixing it up with QQ against taglag

I bet the flop most times here, but I decided to check this time. I don't remember this guy's stats, maybe 24/21, but pretty positionally aware. I 3-bet his UTG raise and showed a pretty decent amount of strength, and I figured if he had JJ-TT he would call turn and river bets before he calls flop and turn bets.

So are the turn and river standard given how I played the flop?

Full Tilt Poker, $0.50/$1 NL Hold'em Cash Game, 6 Players
LegoPoker Hand History Converter

Hero (BTN): $118.55
SB: $112.05
BB: $69.55
UTG: $193.80
MP: $66.20
CO: $86.60

Pre-Flop: Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] dealt to Hero (BTN)
<font color="red">UTG raises to $3</font>, 2 folds, <font color="red">Hero raises to $12</font>, 2 folds, UTG calls $9

Flop: ($25.50) 8[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] 8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] (2 Players)
UTG checks, Hero checks

Turn: ($25.50) 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 Players)
UTG checks, <font color="red">Hero bets $19</font>, UTG calls $19

River: ($63.50) 2[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] (2 Players)
UTG checks, <font color="red">Hero bets $36</font>, <font color="red">UTG raises to $162.80 and is All-In</font>, Hero calls $51.55 and is All-In

looks fine to me. flop is kinda meh cuz i expect him to call ur flop bet with rather wide range and then check the turn and bet river. but throwin this out their looks really bluffy and is prolly ok to do from time to time.

don't like your river bet size much at all for a b/c.

Yeah, I couldn't decide what to bet, I figured his most likely hands were 99-JJ, maybe smaller pairs than that.. I wasn't sure how much he'd call. Maybe 48 if I'm calling the shove?

yeah, seems to me that either like 47/48 or like 30/32 would be better.

I like the play. It just screams 2 high cards the entire time and I wouldn't be surprised if villain shoved with any pp JJ or lower. Villain's line doesn't look like AA or KK at all.

I also like it, it's a very non-threatening flop and I think he'll show up with a mid PP a lot here.

this is so fishy, but i can't really put him on anything that beats us so i call. aa/kk would almost always bet the turn, 3x is almost never in his range, and 8x is also a crazy small part of his range. honestly looks to me like its either 88/33/air
