I hate how I played this hand. any suggestions?

[threeonefour]

No real reads against the players in question though I have a super tight image (probably around 8% VPIP at this table over 100ish hands) if they happen to care, which they very well may not.

The board isn't draw heavy, it definitely wasn't on the flop. My thinking is that i should check behind on the turn as if in a way ahead/ way behind situation, that way a pot size bet likely goes in at the river both when i am winning and when i am losing. Whereas with the line I took, I lose all my chips (if i decide i can't fold) if behind and probably end up with a much smaller pot if i win.

at the river I figure since i called the turn raise I better call the river because I think the pot was around 170 at that point (including my oppenents bet) and it was only 60 more to call.

I don't see any problems preflop or on the flop.

I like a 1/2 pot bet on the turn. You're not scaring away a Queen, but you're also getting a set to show the real strength of his hand.

If you have 100 hands at the table, you need to have some kind of read on the guy. Against a LAG or monkey, no way in hell I fold that turn. Against a calling station or rock, I'm very inclined to fold the turn.

Against an unknown, I'd probably let him have it ONCE. But suspect him.

As always, folding Aces on that benign of a board is easier said than done. I hate the river call.
