Default Raise the river, or is calling OK?

Ick. Villain (LA-P -- 58% VPIP, .53 Tot-A) confused the heck out of me here. What's he betting the turn with?

PokerStars 0.25/0.50 Hold'em (10 handed)

Preflop: Hero is Button with Q[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. MP3 posts a blind of $0.25.
UTG calls, UTG+1 calls, UTG+2 calls, MP1 folds, MP2 calls, MP3 (poster) checks, CO calls, Hero calls, SB completes, BB checks.

Flop: (9 SB) J[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(9 players)</font>
SB checks, BB checks, UTG checks, UTG+1 checks, UTG+2 checks, MP2 checks, MP3 checks, CO checks, <font color="CC3333">Hero bets</font>, SB calls, BB folds, UTG folds, UTG+1 calls, UTG+2 folds, MP2 folds, MP3 calls, CO calls.

Turn: (7 BB) 3[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(5 players)</font>
SB checks, <font color="CC3333">UTG+1 bets</font>, MP3 folds, CO folds, <font color="CC3333">Hero raises</font>, SB folds, UTG+1 calls.

River: (11 BB) 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="blue">(2 players)</font>
<font color="CC3333">UTG+1 bets</font>, Hero calls.

Final Pot: 13 BB

I hope he leaves a trail of breadcrumbs when he limps from table to table.

Hi Entity,

I think you played the postflop very well...preflop you should fold! With all the callers ahead of you, I think more often than not someone has KJ or KQ or AJ and you are already hooped. If the flop comes J42 and there is a bet and, let's say, 3 callers to you, can you fold your hand? If you can, then maybe it's ok you play the QJ. If not, then you can't take such a multiway flop with it.

No offense, but..

Folding would be the stupidest thing hero could do.

I'm pretty sure calling with QJo from the button is just fine.
